Pushy Arsene Wenger hit with FA charge

Arsene Wenger could face a touchline ban after the Arsenal boss was hit with an FA misconduct charge following two altercations with the fourth official during Sunday’s Premier League win over Burnley.

The Frenchman was sent from his technical area by referee Jon Moss for contesting the award of a stoppage-time penalty to the Clarets, having allegedly aimed verbal abuse at fellow official Anthony Taylor.

Wenger then attempted to watch the remainder of the game from the top of the tunnel and was shown by television cameras pushing Taylor when appearing to being told he had to retreat.
