So I’ve been sitting on this article for a year now, ever since we threw away a two-goal at Upton Park. On the way back from that game, I sat on the Jubilee Line and tortured myself
If Wenger had said something contentious about the Henry tackle after the game, you can bet your bottom dollar it would have been discussed in depth – just as it was on FiveLive who weirdly enough, are also a BBC station so people shouting BIAS might want to think again.
