Wenger slams accusations of Arsenal play-acting
13 April 2012
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has defended his players against "unfair" accusations of play-acting in Wednesday's draw against Newcastle.
Bacary Sagna was booked for feigning injury after a challenge from Alan Smith and the hosts were angry with the way Emmanuel Eboue overreacted to some tackles.

"I disagree completely with that," said Wenger whose team face Middlesbrough on Sunday.
"I've watched the game again and many fouls against us were not given."
