Manchester City and Arsenal have been charged by the FA over the conduct of their players during their Premier League match this week.
The two clubs played out a feisty clash at the Emirates Stadium on Wednesday that frequently threatened to boil over. Both sets of players had plenty to say to the referee throughout a match that had numerous flashpoints, and also saw Kevin De Bruyne targeted with objects thrown from the crowd, an incident being investigated separately.

Pep Guardiola praised the important contributions Jack Grealish is making at Manchester City as the forward enjoys his best spell in the shirt.
Grealish has had much scrutiny since his £100m move from Aston Villa in 2021, and has had to battle for a place in the team. Since the break for the World Cup though, he has been one of City's best players and topped off another impressive display with a critical goal in the 3-1 win over Arsenal.
City moved above the Gunners in the table with that result - albeit having played a game more - and now have the momentum in the title race. Grealish has been a central figure in that after keeping Guardiola's trust and with the form he is in can expect that run to continue.
