Arsene Wenger has been charged with misconduct by the FA.
He has been hit for allegedly calling Jon Moss a cheat, shoving Anthony Taylor, and refusing to leave the tunnel. A statement on the FA website said, “It is alleged that in or around the 92nd minute, he used abusive and/or insulting words towards the fourth official. It is further alleged that following his dismissal from the technical area, his behaviour in remaining in the tunnel area and making physical contact with the fourth official amounted to improper conduct.”
With Tony Evans from the Evening Standard calling for a 10 game ban, expect the manager to be tried publicly before a flogging takes place at White Hart Lane.

FA banned Di Canio for 8 games for shoving the referee (11 game ban, 3 for red, 8 for shove) . But he fell over so… pic.twitter.com/895jW3bKIq

Pardew got a 2-game ban for shoving an assistant ref, so that's 8 for a ref, 2 for an assistant. I make a fourth official worth 45 minutes
