Arsenal keeper Szczesny 'achieved' landmark Wenger dismissal

Arsenal goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny's dismissal was a landmark red card for Arsene Wenger.

During their Champions League defeat to Bayern Munich, the 23-year-old Polish stopper goalkeeper was red-carded after 37 minutes for wiping Arjen Robben out in the penalty area

Szczesny's red card is the 100th chalked up by an Arsenal player during the Arsene Wenger era, which began in 1996.

Patrick Vieira tops the list with 10 dismissals, with Martin Keown in second with seven red cards and six players, Dennis Bergkamp, Gilles Grimandi, Laurent Koscielny, Ray Parlour, Emmanuel Petit and Robin van Persie, sitting third with four sendings-off each.
