Arsenal's head coach Arsene Wenger does not believe that there is such a thing as "buses" at the gate.

In the match 19 round of the Premier League Arsenal played an effective draw with Liverpool (3: 3).

During the press conference, one of the journalists suggested that, perhaps, against the most powerful line of attack of Liverpool, the "gunners" had to "park at their gate a bus," to which Arsene Wenger replied:.

"I do not understand what you mean by using the phrase" park the bus ".

"I do not know who came up with this concept, but it has nothing to do with football".

"Against Liverpool, we defensively defended, but the level of players in their line of attack is too high. Footballers Mersisaydtsev have great individual skill, because in matches with them it is impossible to guarantee that you will not miss ".

"I was counting on the fact that we will be able to score a sufficient number of balls," - quotes Wenger Evening Standard.

The term "park the bus" for the first time used the current head coach MJ Jose Mourinho in the distant 2004 after his Chelsea failed to score Tottenham (0-0).
