Image
If I go into a season and I say, 'For f***'s sake, if we don't win anything, they will all leave,' I have already lost. The problem of the media is always to imagine the worst. The problem of the manager is always to imagine the best.
Arsene Wenger
Image
As a coach you can influence the diet of your players. You can point out what is wrong.
Arsene Wenger
Image
Of course, we also have the responsibility to win games and the difficulty in the job is to combine both.
Arsene Wenger
Image
I'm French. I have not become an Englishman. I have the impression of living on an island called Arsenal. If you fancy a sightseeing tour of London, don't ask me. You would get lost.
Arsene Wenger
Image
Everybody has a different opinion in this league and nobody is a prophet. I personally don't know who will win the league. I managed 1,600 games so, if Nani knows, he must be 1,600 times more intelligent than I am.

Image
For a while, you could decide when you loan the player out whether he plays against you or not, and I always decided that he could play against us. But I must say I didn't get any protection from the media because when the player I loaned out scored against us, it's 'aaahhh, look at him, stupid...'

Image
Nobody will finish above us in the league. It wouldn't surprise me if we were to go unbeaten for the whole of the season. The challenge now is to dominate English football for a long time.
Arsene Wenger
Image
I believe one of the best things about managing people is that we can influence lives in a positive way. That's basically what a manager is about. When I can do that, I am very happy.
Arsene Wenger
Image
A manager is a guide. He takes a group of people and says, 'With you I can make us a success I can show you the way.'
Arsene Wenger
Image
Gerard is an open-minded and passionate man. I am the opposite: stubborn and stupid. But sometimes stupid behaviour makes you win.
Arsene Wenger
Image
You weren’t world-class when Arsenal signed you.
Arsene Wenger
Image
When you represent a club it's about values and qualities, not about passports.
Arsene Wenger
Image
Spare me the articles about how nice Shawcross is because that was a horrendous tackle. People say we don't fancy the physical side of it, but this is the result. If you see a player getting injured like that, it's not acceptable.
Arsene Wenger
Image
You build a player like you build a house. You start with the foundations. The fundamentals.
Arsene Wenger
Image
You cannot play for Arsenal and give up, no matter what the score is.
Arsene Wenger
Image
Sol has experience, pace and physical power, which nobody else has together.

Image
When you're dealing with someone who only has a pair of underpants on, if you take his underpants off, he has nothing left - he's naked. You're better off trying to find him a pair of trousers to complement him rather than change him.

If you do not believe you can do it then you have no chance at all.
Arsene Wenger
Image
It's a strange atmosphere always over there, it is darker and less glamorous, and you don't feel as high. It is a different kind of test - can you raise your level in a less exciting environment and perhaps still a very difficult one?

At a young age winning is not the most important thing... the important thing is to develop creative and skilled players with good confidence.
