Arsene Wenger annoyed after Arsenal's 1-2 defeat to United, refuse to blame players

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger admitted he was angry after his side's 2-1 home defeat against Manchester United on Saturday, but he refused to direct his annoyance at his misfiring players.
Wenger's side spurned a host of glorious chances to take the initiative against United before a second half own goal from Kieran Gibbs and a late Wayne Rooney clincher condemned the Gunners to their worst league start in 32 years.
"I wasn't angry with the players," Wenger told reporters. "I have a lot of respect for the energy they put in the game and the spirit they show, their great attitude, spirit and energy levels.
"I'm just angry because the players do not get rewarded and our fans do not get rewarded for the result that was just there for the taking today. We have suffered against United before but we cannot say that we suffered against them.
"If you look at the number of games recently, the number of shots our opponent has and the number of goals we concede, that is quite a continuity at the moment."
"The players have been really good [individually]. At the moment it's very difficult because we lack a bit of experience in some positions."
