Officials Give Manchester City Helping Hands. Says Arsene Wenger
Arsenal boss believes the officials gave Manchester City an helping hands during his 3-1 defeat at Etihad Stadium on Sunday.
Arsene Wenger slammed Manchester City's Raheem Sterling for "diving" and gave a scathing assessment of the standard of officiating in the Premier League, claiming it "drops every season" .
Arsenal felt aggrieved by the awarding of a second-half penalty, with Nacho Monreal penalised for bringing down Sterling.
City's third goal frustrated Arsenal even more, as David Silva teed up Gabriel Jesus for an easy finish despite the Spaniard appearing to stray offside in the build-up.
"I felt it was an intense game, quality on both sides," he told Sky Sports. "Of course, Man City are on a high, but I felt we had plenty of dangerous situations and chances and I would say overall, once again, the referee made the decisions today with a soft penalty and an offside goal.
