Arsene Wenger BLASTS referee as Arsenal collapse at Tottenham
ARSENE WENGER blamed his team for losing against Tottenham - and then hit out at the referee.
Arsene Wenger was unhappy with his team and the referee against Tottenham
Two goals from Spurs striker Harry Kane saw Arsenal collapse at White Hart Lane after going ahead through Mesut Ozil.
But while Wenger hit out at his team for their poor performance he also blamed the referee.
Ref Martin Atkinson booked five Arsenal players and Wenger appeared incensed at a tackle from Danny Rose on Danny Welbeck that went unpunished.
"I think we were not very good and the referee was at our level," the Frenchman hissed.
Arsenal's defence were left scratching their heads by Harry Kane
"I don't think he had a good day as well.
"We defended quite well but offensively we were not good enough.
"Look for me they created more chances and overall we cannot dispute the game too much.
"The regret we have is we gave the goals away and of course lose the derby is difficult."
