Essien has words for Arsenal

10 November 2008 - 05:13

Michael Essien has put the boot in to Arsenal and Arsene Wenger, insisting their style of football is all about beauty, not necessarily substance.

Chelsea set to hold talks with £22m winger

Chelsea set for contract talks with £26m star

Essien told the BBC's Inside Sport programme: ''Everybody likes to watch beautiful football, but to play beautiful football without points is... I don't think it's worth it.



''Arsenal is one of those teams that just plays beautiful football, but at the end of the day they don't get the points that they want to.



''To be rough and get three points, or play well and get three points - win ugly or beautifully - I don't care.''
