West Ham boss Bilic: Wenger doesn't deserve this treatment

Image result for image of arsene wengerWest Ham boss Slaven Bilic says Arsenal rival Arsene Wenger has been treated unfairly by critics.
Bilic wrote for the London Evening Standard: "I would like to say something about Arsene Wenger and the criticism he has taken recently. Okay, it is part of the job and all that but at the end of the day, sometimes it is too much.
"Social media has added significantly to the intensity and what I really don't understand is the feeling, among some, that the more you earn, the more you should be immune to criticism.
"It doesn't matter if Arsene earns £1million or £5m — at the end of the day he is human. He is not doing his job now for the money.
"We can all get the sack, of course, and you can take fair criticism but some of it crosses the line and it can develop into a witch-hunt.
"Nobody deserves that, least of all Arsene."
