Refs 'like lions in the zoo', complains Wenger

Sterling was utilised in fluid front three for Pep Guardiola's side, here he is popping up on the City left to trouble Bellerin

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger suggested referees were over-protected after complaining "two offside goals" had accounted for his team in Sunday's 2-1 Premier League defeat at Manchester City.

Theo Walcott gave Arsenal a fifth-minute lead, but Leroy Sane equalised early in the second half, getting the benefit of the doubt in a tight offside call to run in and score from David Silva's pass.
