David Dunn has told Arsene Wenger to stop moaning about Blackburn’s physical approach, following Arsene Wenger’s comments after his side drew 1-1 in a feisty encounter at Ewood Park.

Sunday’s 1-1 draw between the two clubs was a typically robust affair in Lancashire, with Blackburn’s players certainly not holding back in taking on their capital counterparts.

But while Arsene has complained that Rovers over stepped the mark using over the top phrases like ‘violent’, Dunn believes they are simply a team displaying commitment that plays well within the rules of the game.

Wenger has been openly critical of Blackburn ever since a fractious FA Cup semi-final between the two sides in 2005 and Dunn feels it is about time the Frenchman learned to hold his tongue.

‘I disagree totally with what he said,’ Dunn told the Daily Mirror.

‘Committed, yes, aggressive, yes, but they have better players than us with more ability going through the team so we have to close that gap and make it into a little bit of a battle.

‘It’s getting a little bit funny because every time we play Arsenal, they’re the ones who say we’re violent. But we’re not, we’re committed and that’s what you would expect from any team.

‘It always seems to be the Arsenal camp who come out with that kind of comment. I wouldn’t be so sure Alex Ferguson would say that and he would expect that from his team as well.’

I have one thing to say about this regardless of who it upsets…

WELL SAID.
