Man City won the match 3-0 and dominated possesion and were deserved winners, however, as per normal, Arsene Wenger didn't see it that way.
The Arsenal manager, refused to shake hands with opposition manager Mark Hughes at the final whistle leading Hughes to accuse Wenger of "not knowing how to behave."Wenger responded by saying, "On Saturday, I am managing my 500th game at Arsenal and I believe I have shaken hands 497 times. It is a ceremonial courtesy but the most important is not the ceremonial but the courtesy of behaviour."
Personally i thought it was disgraceful behaviour by Wenger, no matter the result, nor the manner in which it came about, you should always shake hands to show respect, and besides it wasn't Hughes running the game or making decisions, he, like Wenger, can only watch from the side.
Wenger should be ashamed at his unsporting behaviour and embarassed at the example he has set for young people who look up to his as a role model.
Hopefully, one day, Wenger will realise, not everything goes your way, and sometimes to be the bigger and better person, you should swallow your tongue and your pride and just show respect.
