Mikel Arteta should encircle himself with experience on the off chance that he is designated as the new lead coach of Arsenal, that is as per previous Gunners supervisor Arsene Wenger.
The Manchester City aide has risen as the main possibility to succeed the sacked Unai Emery at the Emirates, the Spaniard having held propelled discusses playing his first job in senior administration at the club where he completed his playing profession.
“I am an Arsenal supporter,” Wenger told Sky Sports. “And at the moment I support the manager in charge and the manager in charge is Ljungberg. When Arteta will be in charge I will support Arteta.
“For the rest, of course Arsenal is going through a very difficult period so it’s better I don’t comment too much on that and I just suffer like every supporter.”
“He (Arteta) is intelligent, he has passion, he has knowledge, but Ljungberg [does] as well,” Wenger added.
“I believe that Arteta has certainly a great future, he has certainly learned a lot in his first position as an assistant coach and after that as well he will have to deal with the fact that he has no experience at that level, and he will have to get surrounded well.”
“When I left the club was in a very strong financial position and they bought many players in-between – they have not all worked out,” Wenger added.
“I believe that it’s not a question of time. The change can be very efficient very quickly, it’s just about the right decision-making and that’s all that it’s about in football, it’s about good players.
“We speak about the success of Liverpool, of course they have a great manager, but you have to say as well that in the last three-four years, they bought the right players.”
