Following Gary Neville's stinging attack on Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger has fought back claiming TV pundits don't do enough research.
Gary Neville who is a pundit for Sky Sports branded Wenger 'arrogant or naive' during coverage of the Gunners' goalless draw against Liverpool on Monday night.
Wenger however, hit back on Thursday, claiming 'experts' are not doing the preparation to justify their assertions.
'I accept you can be right and I can be wrong.
'But what you do not want is just an opinion that comes out just because you feel like that.
'I watch sometimes, the guy doesn't talk about the game — he tells you his life and what he thinks about football.
'At the end, I don't know the players who have played on the pitch because the guys don't comment on the game.
'Wenger, who has worked as a pundit in his native France, added: 'I am not against opinion, people can say they don't think Arsenal are good enough.
'What is a concern is that it puts pressure on players.
'People who have been in the game, I love that they go on television, but what I would like is for them to help people to love football even more.
'The first mission is to educate people.'
It's always easy to attack Wenger but its just the start of the new season.
