Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger criticises the way that his side defended against Norwich City this afternoon.

Arsene Wenger has criticised the way that his Arsenal side defended against Norwich City earlier today.

Despite scoring three goals against the Canaries, the hosting Gunners were forced to settle for a draw at the Emirates Stadium.

Reflecting on his team's performance, Wenger admitted that his defenders cost Arsenal the chance of claiming maximum points against Paul Lambert's visitors.

"Defensively we made it too easy for Norwich," Wenger told BBC Sport. "We gave far too many chances away.

"We were not strong enough. But they played well and we need to give them credit."

Arsenal are currently third in the Premier League table.
