Arsenal boss Arsène Wenger has voiced his support to striker Thierry Henry for his bust-up with Wigan goalkeeper Chris Kirkland.
Henry had appeared to taunt Kirkland after Arsenal had scored their equaliser, after the Wigan goalkeeper tried to waste time by prolonging his goal kicks.
Wenger said: "People do not come and pay money to see people waste time.
"What Thierry did was right. He shouldn't have done it but it wasn't the worst insult you will see.
"It's frustrating for Wigan but many decisions have gone against us."
