Jack Wilshere sums up the experience of playing at Etihad Stadium with his middle finger

Man City improved their perfect home record to eight wins in as many matches with a 6-3 victory over first-place Arsenal. It was a frustrating day for the visitors, which has become the norm for anyone making the trip to Etihad Stadium.

Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere summed up this frustration when he decided to give City fans the finger in the 69th minute. Because if you can't beat 'em, show them your finger.

Since the TV camera caught Wilshere's gesture, he could be in for a ban. When Luis Suarez did it at Craven Cottage in 2011, he was given a one-match ban on top of the eight match ban he received for racially abusing Patrice Evra.

The way Man City are playing at home this season (in their last four home matches, they have won 7-0, 6-0, 3-0 and 6-3), they might get used to their guests doing what Wilshere did.
