Soccer-Wenger concerned by artificial pitch at minor league Sutton


Feb 20 (Reuters) - Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger believes Sutton United's artificial pitch could cause his side problems and warned against complacency when they visit the National League team in the fifth round of the FA Cup later on Monday. Sutton are 17th in the National League but Wenger said his team would need to overcome a number of obstacles to progress to the next round. "Firstly, the pitch," the Frenchman told reporters when asked about the issues his team would have to contend with against their minor league opponents. We face an artificial pitch and we have to deal with it." "I've heard that Sutton have a wet pitch, they water it before the game so it'll be much quicker," Wenger added.
