My Future Will Not Affect Players - Arsene Wenger

Adjust Comment Print

Chants including "Arsene Wenger, we want you to go", "We want Wenger out" and "You're not fit to wear the shirt" were clearly audible inside the ground, with Arsenal's players then subjected to verbal abuse as they headed for the team coach.

After a run of five defeats in eight Premier League games, Arsenal have fallen from second to sixth - seven points behind fourth-placed Manchester City who have played a game more.

Asked to assess his team's top-four chances, Wenger said: "As very hard, like you, certainly".

After the match Wenger refused to offer any update on his future, with his contract expiring at the end of the season.

Netflix growth misses mark despite strong earnings
Because of those expenses, Netflix said profit in the period will be 15 cents a share , short of analysts' estimate of 23 cents. The streaming service has alienated major theater operators by premiering its movies online the same day they hit big screens.

"I think we had the opportunities to score goals, and I think that tonight tactically was the players being aware of what had to happen to beat Arsenal". "My person at the moment, and especially tonight, I think it would be inconvenient to speak about me tonight".

"It was more painful for us to lose this game in the way we lost it". "In the second half they were stronger than us but the second goal was unfortunate and the penalty killed our game". "Incredible victory. The boys are full of confidence at the minute".

And video footage shows fan fury overspill to the players with a number of obscenities not only aimed towards Wenger, but also Mesut Ozil and Shkodran Mustafi. "That's all I can say". And Walcott feared the team's confidence will now take a hit again. It's really odd. We were unbeaten for a long time away from home, and now we can not win. For a long time we were unbeaten away but since we lost a few we don't have the confidence. "But judging from that performance tonight, it looks like [we have]".

And now it seems the Gunners boss is losing support at boardroom level, with Emirates Stadium bosses divided on whether they want to him to stay beyond this season. "We can only apologise".

Wenger's side hit a new low on a chastening evening in south London as struggling Palace condemned the shambolic Gunners to their heaviest Premier League defeat of the season.
