  Arsenal's Wenger brands Man Utd pitch "a disgrace"

  Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger branded the Old Trafford pitch "a disgrace" after his team was thrashed 4-0 by Manchester United in last night's FA Cup meeting.

  "The groundsman had as bad a day as us," he said. "You will see us in a different shape when we come back and a on different pitch. "The pitch is a disgrace. You have players worth £20-25million and you cannot play a pass without it bouncing."

  Haha certainly didnt seem to have any effect on Man Utd's great passing and especially Nani and Evra's dribbling skills

  well, there has to be a reason why the entire gunners team lose their "fire"..

  it was the most lacklustre gunners team I have seen for quite a while..

  indeed, i was expecting some fiery exhibition from both sides, but arsenal was the biggest letdown, disappointing everyone... even their own fans are criticizing them for their lukstre performance..
