Wenger concerned over French World Cup hopes

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is worried that France will fail to qualify for next summer's World Cup in South Africa. The French are currently second in Group 7, but trail leaders Serbia by four points and look as if they will have to settle for the play-offs.

"If Serbia win one game then they're directly qualified so we have a play-off," Wenger told Arsenal's official website.

"France were not fluent for a while. But in the last two games they have played quite better. It would be a disaster not to qualify."
