Wenger needs to regain the cool factor

JUST when we thought an outbreak of common sense had put the Carling Cup final nonsense to bed Arsene Wenger sparks a right old carry-on.

Wenger did not exactly raise the back of his hand limply to his brow Kenneth Williams-style and scream ‘Infamy, infamy...they’ve all got it in for me,’ but he might as well have done as he accused a linesman of being a liar and inferred there was a FA conspiracy against Arsenal.

And you had to wonder quite what has happened to the once calm, intelligent, resourceful manager who has given so much to English football.
