WENGER DISAPPOINTED BY ROBIN VAN PERSIE RECEPTION


Wenger
Arsene Wenger admits he is disappointed that Robin van Persie was continually booed by Arsenal fans during the Gunners’ 1-1 draw with Manchester United.

The Dutchman was making his first return to the Emirates, following his £24million move north last summer, and was subjected to continual abuse throughout the fixture.

Wenger had called on fans to show the Red Devils striker respect and admitted after the match that he was disappointed with certain section of the north London faithful.

I think it’s disappointing that, when you come back, you get real aggression from the fans
“I think it’s disappointing that, when you come back, you get real aggression from the fans.”
But the Frenchman did defend the commitment shown by his players.

“From the first to the last minute it was two teams giving absolutely everything to win,” he said.
“We gave everything and at the end of the day the regret you have is the way we conceded the goal. Just before half-time that was a serious blow to us.”
