JACK WILSHERE FACES a ban after the FA charged him for giving Manchester City fans the finger.

The Arsenal midfielder’s gesture was caught on camera during Saturday’s 6-3 defeat at the Etihad.

A three-man disciplinary panel reviewed video footage and unanimous agreed that Wilshere should have been sent off.

Wilshere now faces a one-match ban which would rule him out of Monday’s Premier League clash with London rivals Chelsea.

Liverpool striker Luis Suarez received a similar punishment for his gesture towards Fulham fans in 2011.

An FA statement read: “The incident was not seen by match officials but was caught on video.

“Wilshere has been charged retrospectively by The FA under a new pilot project for potential ‘not seen’ incidents in Premier League matches.

“Under the new process, if an incident has not been seen by the match officials, a three-man panel will be asked by The FA to review it and advise what, if any action, they believe the match referee should have taken had it been witnessed at the time.

“For an FA charge to follow, all three panel members must agree it is a sending-off offence. In this instance, the panel were unanimous.

“Wilshere has until 6pm on 18 December to respond to the charge.”

Is this the best crossbar challenge you’ve ever seen?
