Arsene Wenger: Alexis Sanchez could have been killed

Arsene Wenger believes Norwich defender Ryan Bennett “could have killed” Alexis Sanchez when he pushed him into the Carrow Road camera pit last weekend.

The Chile forward landed heavily in the cameraman’s area on the touchline during an incident in the first-half and was later forced off with a hamstring injury.

With Sanchez now likely to be sidelined for a number of weeks, Wenger defended his decision to play the 26-year-old in the 1-1 draw against Norwich on Sunday.
