da bet nacional： Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has lavished praise on Theo Walcott and Danny Welbeck following their 2-1 win over Leicester City on Sunday, according to reports from the Mirror.
da bet vitoria： The Foxes took the lead through a Jamie Vardy penalty, but the Gunners clawed back with goals from Walcott and Welbeck to cut the gap between them and Leicester down to just two points.
The England international duo both came off the bench in the triumph, with Welbeck playing his first league game this season after 10 months on the sidelines recovering from a knee injury.
And Wenger couldn’t hide his delight, citing the importance of a strong bench in a game of football.
Wenger said: “That game shows you, at that level, the bench plays a big part. When you dominate the games, you can bring on strikers like Walcott or Welbeck, it changes completely your opportunities.
“A loss today would have been massive. After losing you get all the negative vibes, the belief goes down, it would have been much more difficult.
“We would not have given up, but eight points is three games to come back. We would need to win three, they would need to lose three.”
On the other hand, Leicester manager Claudio Ranieri was unhappy with the officials, but he only had good words for his players, who fought with 10 men for over 40 minutes after Danny Simpson picked up his second yellow card and was given his marching orders in the second half.
He said: “I am very angry because maybe I make mistakes but an international referee gives two yellow cards for normal fouls and the match was full of fouls and very difficult fouls.
“When you make one yellow card you have to stay calm, my players but also the referee. In the second half maybe the crowd push a lot and put him under pressure. Also there was four minutes of extra time (signalled) and there was five minutes (played).
“I said to them (the players) ‘go home and we will see you next Monday’ because they deserve it.
“They will go, I don’t know where, Dubai maybe, wherever they want. I will have one day in London and then I will go to Rome.”
