Wilshere feels Sergio Aguero's opener should have been disallowed for a push on Shkodran Mustafi in the build-up, suggests Leroy Sane was offside as Vincent Kompany scored and called for a second yellow on another City player.

"Hard to put into words my emotions about yesterday," he posted across social media. "City are a good team and deserved to win yesterday.

"Alot of people have had thier say on us and we have to accept criticism when we loose [sic]. That being said i can't accept some of the decisions that went against us yesterday [sic].

"What ever you say about the first goal, its a foul [sic]. The second goal is offside. There should have been a second yellow in the first half. Yes this happens in football but its still hard to accept [sic].

"And people will say we are looking for excuses but these are facts. Anyway we need to respond, starting on thursday [sic]. Thanks to all the gooners for your support and trust me we feel the same but we need to stick together [sic]."
