Manager Arsène Wenger is adamant that his team had the better chances in a tight, edgy affair against local rivals Tottenham Hotspur.

The North London derby ended in a goalless draw but Spurs should have capitalised on their numerical advantage when the Gunners had defender Emmanuel Eboue sent off.

Arsenal also had a goal disallowed and that is a point of contention by the Frenchman.

Wenger said: "I believe we had a resilient, committed attitude and I'm proud of our attitude during the 90 minutes.

"But I feel it is two points dropped because we had the best chances and we scored a regular goal that was ruled out by an illusionary foul seen by only the referee.

"I watched it three times on television and I still don't see what was wrong.

"That is why at the end of the day it's frustrating.

"We keep going. We have a momentum it is true but we didn't score today.

"We haven't lost for 11 games now and we just keep going."

I agree in part Mr Wenger, the goal should have stood. But you have to take some of the blame for putting that idiot (Eboue) on the pitch in the first place. Any other player out there would have been a better option.
Let's hope we get some of our injured back soon, only plus is that he is now suspended, shame it's not the rest of the season!!
