Arsene Wenger faulted for playing Alex Iwobi vs. Chelsea

Ian Wright has insisted that Arsene Wenger 'should have had a stronger stance’ on Alex Iwobi by leaving him out of Wednesday's English League Cup semi-final clash against Chelsea.

The Super Eagles forward was reported to have been partying the night before Arsenal's shocking FA Cup loss to Nottingham Forest on Sunday, where he gave an underwhelming performed.

He was again on parade for the full 90 minutes as the Emirates Stadium outfit held Antonio Conte’s men to a 0-0 stalement at the Stamford Bridge.

And Wright has expressed his displeasure with the way the Gunners boss handled the 21-year-old's situation.
