Arsenal chairman Peter Hill-Wood has told how Arsenal Football Club owes so much to Arsene Wenger and had he not arrived it would be highly unlikely we would be in the position we are now.

We moved into a spanking new stadium earlier this year, a stadium which is widely considered the best club stadium in Europe, and PHW believes that would not have been possible without Arsene Wenger.

Hill-Wood said, ‘He has been a fantastic asset for this club and achieved remarkable things for us.

‘Indeed, it’s mainly due to the success that we’ve had under Arsene that we are at a new stadium.

‘We would never have been able to build it without him being here.’

The Arsenal top brass also expressed his desire to get Mr Wenger tied down to a new contract as quickly as possible.

‘I have 100 percent confidence that Arsene knows what he is doing. He has proved that and I am not worried at all.

‘If he is happy to stay, then we will want him to stay even longer. As long as he is happy here, then we are more than happy to keep him.

‘In the 10 years he has been here, we have progressed so much as a club. It’s a joy to have him here.’

For once I have to say that I agree with the old man. Wenger knows.
