Arsenal striker Danny Welbeck has admitted that he does not understand why manager Arsene Wenger has been criticised of late.
The Gunners boss has come under fire following a series of unexpected defeats to West Ham United, Dinamo Zagreb and Olmypiacos.
Welbeck, who joined Arsenal from Manchester United in September 2014, has stated that critics have been too quick to pile pressure on the Frenchman.
"I can only speak for myself, and I've not been there as long as some of the other players," the England frontman told The National.
"Obviously, Arsene's done a great job at Arsenal, and you can't really fault what he's done. When I've been there he's been great with me and great with the other lads as well from what I've seen.
"People are entitled to their own opinion. It doesn't mean what they say is right."
Arsenal resume their Premier League campaign at Watford on Saturday.
