Shearer says Arsenal cannot win whilst playing beautiful football

Arsene Wenger has called Alan Shearer ’stupid’ for saying that Beautiful FC cannot win the Premier League playing ‘beautiful football’. Shearer made his comments after Arsenal’s Boxing Day draw at Portsmouth. But Wenger delivered his angry response with nice timing yesterday, after Arsenal beat Everton 4-1, to stay atop the Premiership:

“The problem is that one guy can come out with a stupid idea and it becomes a common belief even though it is not confirmed by the facts.’’

Touche Wenger. But...

The irony here though is that while Arsenal responded with a win, many are claiming it came in uncharacteristic style: three of the four goals came from long balls.
