Arsene Wenger slammed Portsmouth for their defensive tactics in their 0-0 draw with Arsenal at Fratton Park. The Gunners have lost top spot to Man Utd who won 4-0 at Sunderland in the Premiership.

"It was a surprise. Their whole midfield was focused on defending and we were not creative enough to find an opening.â
