Drown his sorrows? Arsenal boss Wenger makes request to Swedish hotel staff

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger made a surprise request of hotel staff in Sweden upon checking in yesterday.

Wenger's side will take on Ostersunds in their Europa League Round of 32 clash on Thursday, and are favourites to come away with a result.

OP reports Wenger made a rather interesting hotel room request upon checking in for the night.

He allegedly asked the staff at the hotel to source him a bottle of Mackmyra - Sweden's most famous whiskey - which will no doubt be waiting for him on Thursday.

But it's unclear whether he ordered the whiskey for the afternoon - or for after tonight's game.
