Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger believes television pundits have started to "brainwash" football supporters.

The Gunners boss has been subject to scrutiny in recent weeks in the media, with the team losing ground in the Premier League title race and falling out of the UEFA Champions League 10-2 on aggregate against Bayern Munich.

But speaking after his team progressed into the FA Cup semi-finals with a 5-0 win over Lincoln City, Wenger suggested analysts set the narrative for fans at times, using Barcelona's stunning 6-1 win over Paris Saint-Germain last week in the Champions League as an example.
