    Wenger: Wolves ruined league credibility

    The credibility of the Premier League has been damaged by Mick McCarthy's decision to field a weakened Wolves team against Manchester United, according to Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger.

    United beat Wolves 3-0 at Old Trafford on Tuesday night after the visitors made 10 changes to the line-up that had beaten Tottenham Hotspur the previous Saturday.
    McCarthy said he had rested his first-choice players to avoid them getting injured ahead of a crucial clash with newly-promoted Burnley on Sunday, but many critics saw the changes as an unfair and an admission of defeat.
    Arsenal boss Wenger said: "We will have to compete with Manchester United over 37 games instead of 38. I believe it is a problem for the international credibility of the Premier League, but it is not my problem, it is a Premier League problem."
    The Premier League said on Wednesday they had written to Wolves asking them for "their observations" in relation to the team that took to the field against United.
    "Once the observations are received the Board will decide whether any further action is warranted," the Premier League said in a statement.
    McCarthy continued to justify his selection by insisting he needed to use his full squad to cope with a busy spell of fixtures over Christmas, arguing that Wolves fans would understand his decision if they beat Burnley.
    Some Wolves fans chanted "we want our money back" at Old Trafford as Wolves slipped into the bottom three.

      Arsene Wenger frustrated by Premier League fixture list


      Arsene Wenger has hit out at the Premier League fixture list after his side's 1-1 draw with Burnley. Arsenal play Hull, who have not played since 12 December, on Saturday after away games on Sunday and Wednesday.
      "The guy who organised the fixtures this season must have come from a special school, because he's more intelligent than I am," said Wenger.
      "I think the Premier League has a basic promise to organise the fixtures in a normal way."
      Hull's week without a game was a result of Everton's Europa League commitments, and Wenger believes his side have been unfairly treated.
      Arsenal won 2-1 at Liverpool on 13 December before taking on Burnley at Turf Moor on Wednesday, during which they lost Cesc Fabregas to a hamstring injury that will keep him out of the next match at least.


      "For sure, (the fixture organisers) have never played football, organising midweek games in a week when you have a Europa League programme," said Wenger.
      "We have some teams who do not play at all. We play Sunday and Wednesday away and at home on Saturday against Hull, who have not played all week."
