Wenger claims Evra has shown lack of respect

ARSENE WENGER says Manchester United defender Patrice Evra has shown a lack of respect by branding the Gunners nothing more than a “training centre” ahead of Monday night’s Premier League showdown at Old Trafford.

Evra turned up the heat ahead of the showdown during an interview with French television, in which he claimed Arsenal offer style but little substance and declaring the club was in “crisis” for not having won a trophy since 2005.

Wenger, however, feels a war of words serves no purpose.
