Arsenal boss Wenger blows fuse over smoking Chamakh

Arsenal striker Marouane Chamakh is facing showdown talks with a furious manager Arsene Wenger.

The Daily Mail says Wenger is furious with Chamakh after the striker was pictured holding a shisha pipe hours after Arsenal's defeat at QPR.

The Morocco forward was snapped with fellow countryman Adel Taarabt, who had earlier scored against the Gunners, with pipes on Saturday.

Smoking shisha is not illegal in the UK; nevertheless Wenger is angry with the behaviour of his striker given his side - minus the out-of-favour Chamakh - had slumped to a surprise 2-1 defeat.
