Wenger Agrees With Vital Arsenal
After Wayne Rooney claimed he never dives, Vital Arsenal published an article stating Rooney IS an idiot and a liar, and it appears Mr Wenger agrees.
Speaking to the Arsenal fans via a web chat session on Arsenal.com yesterday, Wenger recalled one of his most painful moments as the Arsenal gaffer and a decision he wishies could have been reversed.
'I feel the penalty awarded by [Mike] Riley at Manchester United in our 50th game [after 49 unbeaten] was a completely invented penalty. That is a decision which I regret. [Wayne] Rooney dived on that occasion. It was on a day when we did not deserve to lose.' said Le Boss.
And who am I to argue with the great man??

I think AW also agreed with our view that Chelsea are w@nkers.

Arsene knows.........and also tells it like it is.

Very intelligent Sh1twitdinho.

If Mourinho were still harping on about a game from 2 years ago you would never let it rest, why is it ok for Wenger, other than that he's your manager?
Westl
Because he was asked a direct question about the incident by a supporter.
Little Dutch
Westl you little fool, it was the end of our unbeaten run, so it makes it all a little harder to bear!!!
Maureen wouldn't have anything like that to say as he hasn't experienced anything like that (except maybe an unbeaten £490m spending spree, but that's slightly different!!!)
scooch
The fact that Pugface had said he'd never dive may have been a contributory factor.
hatespur
scooch, thats some funny sh!t that you just said. keep it up!
xfancier
Rooney is a w@nker. Idiot! Diver
Tugboat
come on the video earlier shows it all and against arsenal that was even worser NO CONTACT what so ever

In response to the headline Rooney: Idiot or liar? I say he's a hero and a hypocrite. He's a hero for saying that diving is bad and inmorale. He's a hypocrite for doing it himself! At least younger players who are mad enough to like him will then hopefully be "just like Rooney" and not dive.
Tugboat
Yes, AW is a straight shooter. I forte that trait in every facet of life.
SWPACIFIC
