Arsenal keeper Wojciech Szczesny slapped with £20,000 fine for SMOKING in showers

Suck it up: Szczesny came in for criticism for his error-strewn showing at St Mary's

Wojciech Szczesny has been fined £20,000 for smoking in the showers after a game.

He was caught lighting up following Arsenal’s New Year’s Day defeat at ­Southampton – to the fury of boss Arsene Wenger, who was already raging over the keeper’s error-strewn horror show.

Szczesny was dropped for the next game, the FA Cup tie with Hull, although Arsene Wenger was always intending to give David Ospina a run in the competition.

But it remains to be seen whether Wenger will further punish Szczesny by dropping him from the team for Sunday’s Match with Stoke City.
