Jose Mourinho: I have no idea about possible Arsene Wenger punishment

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has said he cannot predict what punishment Arsenal counterpart Arsene Wenger could get for his clash with fourth official Antony Taylor, adding: "I have never pushed the referee."

Wenger has until 6 p.m. GMT on Thursday to respond to a Football Association misconduct charge for allegedly using abusive and/or insulting words towards Taylor and making physical contact with the official in Sunday's 2-1 win over Burnley at the Emirates Stadium.

Sources at the FA have told ESPN FC that a regulatory commission has the power to hit Wenger with either a touchline ban or a stadium ban that would prevent him from attending any first-team fixture during a suspension.
