Every manager does stupid things. You scrutinise everything Wenger does because you're an Arsenal (I think) fan. And moreso in recent years because of relative underachievement.
If Wenger was British, the media would be behind him no matter what he did.
Of course, this is a pointless conversation to have with someone who would probably have Wenger hung, drawn and quartered if he dropped a plate in his kitchen.
The point is that ESPN (and the majority of football media) are scum and anyone disputing this is more blinkered than Wenger is supposed to be.

It's so funny how 'I didn't see it' seems to piss so many people off
AW knows full well everyone knows he is lying when he says it, yet oppo fans act like Wenger thinks he's taking us all for mugs - no, he just doesn't feel like drawing attention to decision "controversies" that may or may not have benefited his team (and good on him for that, since it doesn't fucking matter anyway)
I.E. He knows we know he's lying, and he doesn't give a fuck
