Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has taken aim again at Blackburn Rovers striker El Hadji Diouf over his late challenge on Manuel Almunia during Saturday's win.

TV replays showed him slide in late at full speed, catching keeper Almunia on the ankle after the ball had been cleared.

Gunners boss Wenger said: "Diouf should have been sent off.

"You can't compromise on challenges like that - it could break your leg."

Almunia was injured in the clash and is doubtful for Newcastle on Saturday.

Gunners skipper Cesc Fabregas said: "You can't go in to injure a player."
