Wenger: Arsenal would support winter World Cup

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger says he could tolerate a winter World Cup.

Wenger says Arsenal will support whatever the FA decides to do when it comes to the Qatar World Cup in 2022.

"Arsenal will do what English football decides," said Wenger. "Of course we want to adapt to the behaviour of English football.

"To me it looks reasonable to play in the winter because the only thing that matters is the safety of the supporters who go there and attend the games.

"The players can cope with the heat because they are prepared. They will be in great condition."
