  • Moxey slams Wenger over double standards

    Wolverhampton Wanderers chief executive Jez Moxey has told Arsene Wenger to "keep your mouth shut" about tackling in the game.

    Wenger has been a critic of tough tacking teams for years and Mick McCarthy's Wolves have developed a negative reputation this season. Newcastle's Joey Barton came in for special attention from Wolves while Karl Henry saw red after sending Wigan's Jordi Gomez flying earlier this month.

    However, Moxey feels the Arsenal boss needs to look closer to home after Jack Wilshere was dismissed against Birmingham for a late challenge. And the young midfielder has been guilty of several mistimed challenges this season.

    Moxey told BBC Radio 5Live: "It is an absolute nonsense. Well, I hope he hears this: keep your mouth shut. Play the game, play aggressive, let everybody play.
    "Wilshere and your other players are going to make similar challenges.

    "I had a big, wry smile listening to Arsene Wenger trying to defend Jack Wilshere for the challenge.

    "All he said was exactly the same as every other manager has and yet he is one of the managers who goes on the front foot, moaning and complaining and bitching about it because it is unfair on his team."

        Wenger speaks truth!
        Over the last 5 years, as a matter of course...the frequency of the brutal attacks made it appear policy of opposing teams...Arsenal players were subjected to UNFAIR BRUTAL ATTACKS!

        That at times some Arsenal players also made brutal challenges, is fact! ...but those are few and far between.

        It is fact that the GUNNERS have suffered mightly at the hands of brutal attacks. It would be 'lying eyes' and totally unfair to say anything opposite.

        Aside: Wenger immediately owned up to Wilshire's tackle being unfair! ...and rightly so!
