Channels  Alex Ferguson slams Wenger By: Agencies January 16, 2005 London: Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has re-opened his war of words with Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger by calling the Frenchman a disgrace. Ferguson slammed Wengers behaviour after Uniteds 2-0 win at Old Trafford in October. He told the Independent: In the tunnel Wenger was criticising my players, calling them cheats, so I told him to leave them alone and behave himself. He ran at me with hands raised saying: What do you want to do about it? Ferguson added: To apologise for the behaviour of the players to another manager is unthinkable. Its a disgrace, but I dont expect Wenger to ever apologise, hes that type of person. Ferguson admits that Ruud van Nistelrooys tackle on Ashley Cole that earned the Dutchman a ban could have given him a serious injury but he believes Arsenal were the main aggressors. Wenger is always complaining the match was not played in the right spirit, he added. They are the worst losers of all time, they dont know how to lose.
