Wenger efter matchen mot Bolton
Sent skall syndaren vakna.
Arsenal har mött Bolton och vad sade Wenger? Ja, vad sade han; var han nöjd, missnöjd, misantropisk, filosofisk eller bara kall som en vindlös vinternatt? Lite av varje skulle jag vilja säga. När man zoomade in honom på matchen; hade han inte en liten tår i ögonvrån. Var han tyngd av stundens allvar att klubben gått till topps i ligan eller hade han skoskav? hans kommentarer efter matchen ger inget svar, men lite matnyttigheter kommer det allt fram;
Det är naturligtvis härligt att leda ligan. N'est-ce pas? "Chelsea have a game in hand but it is good because we had two difficult games against Bolton with a new manager. We faced two cup games and our mental strength, our physical strength, were deeply tested in both games."
ja, sen då; Gallas tackling då? get on with it. Vad tycker vi? Wenger ursäktar Gallas om tacklingen var otrevlig och hoppas att Davies inte är skadad. vidare säger han "There are two things I have heard just now: one, that he [Owen Coyle] was not happy with the tackle, and I am sorry if the tackle was not a good one. I apologise for that. The second thing, that he [Coyle] was not happy that we carried on playing, I think that is unfair because the players who went on, they did not know what was happening behind. When the player went down, they did not know if he got up again because when you win the ball you go forward, you don't know what is happening behind you. That is why I don't believe you can kick the ball out every time a player is down when you win the ball. That means every time you win the ball when you are 2-1 down, every time a player goes down you have to kick the ball out - it's impossible. That's why they changed the rule."
Remember Denilson."I don't know if you remember but when you asked me about the Everton game [when Denilson went down in open play and Everton attacked], I said straight away I didn't expect them to kick the ball out. It was a much more obvious situation because Denilson went down, they got the ball and went to score the third goal. I said after the game that it was OK."
Wenger tyckte dock inte att Gallas tackling så otäck ut från början, men just det såg han ju inte. Nähä? Däremot hörde han Arsenals fans jubla när Davies blev utburen och det var olyckligt.
Det var naturligtvis hårt mot Bolton. Som jag tidigare har sagt, så är porten till underjorden i Bolton och ibland släpps det upp för att äta människor. Å det kan tacklas"In the last two games if you get all the challenges we got, and we had to absorb, and the challenges we made, I am not sure it is in our favour, because we got some big tackles. But we had to cope with it and I am sorry if it was foul [by Gallas] but I cannot change the referee's decision."
Fransmannen var inte orolig när laget hamnade i underläge. Han trodde att laget skulle komma igen."I felt we could come back, yes, but as well you think that the next mistake could be deadly and can turn the game completely the other way. You could be 3-0 down so it was important to play at a high tempo and not make another mistake at the back. At 2-1 it created a doubt in their mind and created a belief in our heads. I know this team will not give up, they will fight until the end."
Diaby blev skadad i vaden. Olyckligt. Hur länge är han borta? Ingen som vet.
