Arsene Wenger refused to blame Petr Cech for two errors that led to West
Ham seeing off Arsenal in their opening Premier League clash of the
season.
Cech was at fault for both goals as he missed a punch to
allow Cheikh Kouyate to head into an empty net before Mauro Zarat beat
him at his near post from long-range in the second half.
"It was a collective lapse," Wenger said of Kouyate's opener. "There are many things to say about that.
"I
knew that if the delivery was good, we were in trouble before the
free-kick was taken. The concentration and organisation was not there
from the set-piece -too far from our goal, too much distance to run
into, we killed ourselves.
"I haven’t spoken to him [Cech] yet. I
can’t see many individual convincing performances today so it’s
difficult to single one out."
