With Arsene Wenger set to serve a three-match ban, the FC crew discuss a recent comment that could lead to a lengthier ban for the Arsenal boss.

Arsene Wenger barged into the officials' dressing room after Arsenal's 1-1 draw at West Brom and called referee Mike Dean "not honest" and "a disgrace," the Football Association has revealed.

The Arsenal manager was angered by Dean's decision to give West Brom a late penalty when the official adjudged Calum Chambers to have handled Kieran Gibbs' cross in the New Year's Eve clash.

A independent disciplinary hearing on Jan. 5 gave Wenger a three-game touchline ban and £40,000 fine for the incident, and the panel's written reasons were published on Tuesday.
