Arsene Wenger has sprung to Manuel Almunia’s defence after the Spaniard has been blamed for Arsenal’s defensive problems in the last couple of games, but especially in the defeat against Man Utd.
He thinks that Almunia is being made a scapegoat, and he says that if he really thought he was to blame then he would have no problem in sacking him.
“I am not afraid to make a tough decision,” he says. “My only target is to make the right decision for the club. But after a game like Sunday we have to believe in our players rather than change half of the team. Almunia has done very well recently. People always look for a scapegoat when you lose a big game, you know.”
