​Arsenal boss Wenger to avoid action after ref rant

Arsene Wenger will not face any censure from the Football Association over his comments about referee Martin Atkinson, according to Sky Sports.

Wenger was critical of Atkinson after Arsenal's 2-1 defeat by Manchester City on Sunday when he claimed both of City's goals should have been chalked off for offside.

Sky sources understand the FA do not believe Wenger has crossed any disciplinary line with his comments and will not be forced to explain them at a hearing.
