Arsenal legend Ian Wright takes aim at Ben White for role in Odsonne Edouard's goal and laments another 'very disappointing' display from Nicolas Pepe in Crystal Palace draw

Ian Wright has singled out two Arsenal players for criticism after their 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace at the Emirates on Monday night.

The club legend watched his old side snatch a point at the death through Alexandre Lacazette's late equaliser but the relief and euphoria soon wore off.

Palace were the better side for significant parts of the game and Wright believes £50million defender Ben White should have done more to stop Odsonne Edouard's goal.
