Wenger backs down over Almunia praise
Manuel Almunia's future at the club is now in doubt, after manager Arsène Wenger stopped short of supporting his number one goalkeeper.
Almunia has been under fire this season for a number of high-profile gaffes, with many of us feeling that he is simply not good enough for a club challenging for the league title.
Speaking at his pre-match press conference to Mirror Football, Wenger said: "I never said that he will be my long-term No.1.
"He is a great goalkeeper and he is in competition with Lukasz Fabianski.
"So I want to see how we finish now so I don't think it is the best period to talk about individual players.
"We have looked vulnerable at times defensively."
