Wenger slams 'lie targeted to hurt'

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has hit out at what he claims are unsubstantiated “lies” aimed at unsettling his team.

The Gunners boss made the comments in an animated press conference on the eve of his side’s Champions League showdown at home to Bayern Munich tonight and just a few days after they crashed out of the FA Cup at home to npower Championship Blackburn.
