I think Arsenal played really well, you shouldn't neglect that, but we were better. I really say that without any arrogance,' said Evra. [LNB]'I heard people saying that what I said was below the belt, but that wasn't my intention. I just wanted to show how much I believe in my team, in their potential and strength. [LNB]'We know Arsenal and we know that if you don't let them breathe - which is what the coach said before the match - then it becomes hard for them, especially at Old Trafford.[LNB] 'United always show up for the big games. Arsenal enjoyed a lot of possession but only had one chance. [LNB]'I think our victory was really deserved, it didn't boil down to small details. But people will have a go at me again for saying what I think.' [LNB] You're rubbish! Evra says Arsenal can't win title with kids as Wenger hits backBright Spark!
