Wenger: we can handle physical
Arsene Wenger believes that his Arsenal side can now handle the physical style of football. Today, Arsenal take on Chelsea and there are sure to be a few challenges flying in between the two Premiership giants.
"For me the situation has got better. I believe the game is usually quite fair," Wenger said.
"I have seen people targeting Patrick Vieira when he played. He was a monster and he could take it. I saw tackles on Patrick which were unbelievable.
"That doesn't exist anymore because the media are more alert and quicker to punish it."
