Former Wales forward Hal Robson-Kanu has criticised Arsenal’s players for ignoring club legends Freddie Ljungberg and Emmanuel Petit in the tunnel after their victory over Chelsea. Arsenal beat Chelsea 2-1 at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday to restore their five-point lead at the top of the table. Following the final whistle, Ljungberg and Petit stood by the side of the red-lit tunnel as both sets of players made their way inside. 'The way he took a moment to acknowledge two men who helped build that club says a lot about his character!!! The boys had waited patiently alongside Hull staff as the Premier League squad arrived off the team bus, but were ignored by every player in the 31-second clip.
