Ian Wright on Trossard's red card

Arsenal legend Ian Wright has expressed his disappointment after Leandro Trossard was sent off before the half-time break against Manchester City.

The Belgium international picked up an early booking in the first half and he was sent off before the interval for kicking the ball away after fouling Bernardo Silva.

Speaking after the game, Wright was very disappointed with the Trossard incident, he said: "I’m very disappointed with Trossard.  It will be as poor play from here; there’s poor play from him.

"Simple as that. So I think the rest of the guys have done unbelievably; it’d have been an interesting game of 11 against 11."

Arsenal looked on course for a superb win over the Cityzens, but they were handed a huge disadvantage with Trossard's sending off.

The Gunners were 2-1 ahead at the interval. They tried their utmost to pick up a win, but John Stones scored a very late equaliser.

With the stalemate, Arsenal are fourth in the league table, but they remain two points behind Manchester City, who are top.
