Now that really hurt

ARSENE WENGER sunk to the ground after Kevin Phillips scored an added time strike that thwarted Arsenal’s pursuit of the title.

The Frenchman probably wanted the ground to swallow him up, but there was no hiding place and their chances of finishing ahead of Manchester United and Chelsea this season now seem slimmer.

To make matters worse, Spanish midfielder Cesc Fabregas is a doubt for Wednesday’s Champions League encounter with Barcelona. He suffered a bang to the knee after a challenge with Craig Gardner, the Birmingham midfield player.
