Just watched the highlights of Everton v Woolwich, and my god, Wenger really is living up to his reputation as the whiniest manager in the history of football.
The corner which he claimed came off an Everton player, was a difficult one to call. I've watched the replay in slow mo a dozen times and still can't make my mind up. If I had a gun to my head though, I'd have to say that it did just about brush off Koscielny. Either way, it was far from clear cut (which he seems to think it was - and all presumably without the aid of slow mo replays given that he made these comments in his post match interview).
My other problem with Wenger (of which I have many) is that he's clearly seen The Butterfly Effect too many times. The dubious corner wasn't even the one that Everton scored from. They scored from the following one (which, to be fair, came directly after the first). Still, if he's gonna play the "hypothetical" card, you could just as easily say that Everton could have "hypothetically" scored from one of the decisions that went against them earlier in the game.
My obvious hatred of Woolwich aside, I genuinely find Wenger to be one of the most deluded and self-pitying managers in the history of football. As earlier posters have pointed out, Woolwich have had so many lucky breaks this season. For once, I wish Wenger would just accept defeat and congratulate the opposition. Woolwich lost because of their terrible aerial defending. End of. Did you see Ozil's attempt at the "mannequin challenge" when Williams scored the winner?

:eriksenlol:Lucas Pérez should be a shamed of himself for getting Jagielka sent off. A dive all day for me.
I hope Wenger tells his players to stop cheating
Again Coquelin should be a shamed for his blatant over reaction dive and spin then the death roll, for the first goal which saw Jagielka get booked. He travelled around 5 meters the Cheating bastard.

I usually don't last until the end of these clips but, as I'm still pissed off after Sunday's performance, I made the effort and glad I did
Must order one of those Wenger Wonderland Xmas jumpers
Lol lol lol lol lol
You're sitting there..... I'm sitting there.... you're all standing up you glitter encrusted vulva
Guy looking at camera at the back with the gormless grin,looks like one of they guys that stand outside school gates,but hasn't got any Kids their!!!
You may disagree, despite last nights result, Woolwich are a decent side, they will relish the game against BM. Lets hope their league form will dip.
What gives you more pleasure us winning or them losing?
Both at the same time is the tops.
That feeling when they drop their bundle but no one else does. Such a sweet feeling.
A double dose of despair: title chances and top 4 chances slipping away. Thank you Everton.
