  • Wenger steps back from critics

    Arsene Wenger admits he distances himself from criticism after revealing he is made to feel like he has 'killed' somebody.
    Arsenal have failed to win a trophy for the past four seasons and the situation has led to questions being raised over Wenger's future.
    The Frenchman has put his faith in youth this season and led his team to the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League and FA Cup.
    The Gunners will also finish fourth in the Premier League and Wenger is satisfied with his side's achievements after brushing off criticism of his decisions.
    Unbelievable

    "When you look now at people assessing the situation, it has just become ridiculous," said Wenger.
    "Every year, every day you feel like you killed somebody.
    "It is unbelievable. If you do not distance yourself from it you think, 'What kind of world are we living in?'
    "We lose to Manchester United, who have 10 times more resources than us. But they are the best in the world. If you play tennis and you lose against Rafa Nadal, you can still say you are a good player.
    "The way we have gone is to rely on a young team which goes to the semi-finals of the Champions League and the FA Cup.
    "It is not like we have lost against Cardiff - it is not as though we have lost to a nobody.
    "So I distance myself from the criticism. I look in the mirror and think, 'Have you given everything, have you done the maximum you can?'
    "This club is in a fantastic situation. Look at its shape, its financial situation and the quality of the squad - I'm pretty envious if I am outside of this club.
    "What we have achieved in the past six months is amazing. For me, this is one of the best seasons considering where we were in November."
