No. It means I am one of the fans who can't see what the pre-96 Arsenal teams have to do with the current Arsenal team. It's irrelevant. There is a dramatic difference between the style of football then and now.

Wenger blamed the pitch for the poor 'technical' quality of the game. Such as the passing for both sides and the players falling over.

"The intensity was high but it was a very bad pitch,The technical quality suffered as a result and that's why you saw mistakes from both sides."

As per usual the press has taken a quote out of content as they usually do with Wenger and used to do with Benitez. Nice copy for papers playing up to the 'moaning foreigner' stereotype. Both of whom should have taken a leaf from Ferguson's book and refuse these press conferences altogether.
