Wenger fooling nobody but himself

ARSENE WENGER is a rarity in that he is a football manager whose name is sometimes used in the lexicon of another sport, namely golf.

His name doubles as the tee shot you hit whose destiny everyone else tracks without mishap but is somehow missed by the one who hit it (Dennis Wise is also part of golfing slang, although he is a putt – a nasty five-footer).

The Frenchman has long been famous for claiming he never saw controversial incidents involving his players but now, it seems, it’s those he actually does admit to witnessing that are taking the breath away.
