Malcolm Crosby: "Arsene Wenger is very complimentary towards Gareth and what he's trying to do and if he thinks that then maybe we're doing something right. "I'm sure when he was a young manager, Wenger didn't have the task Gareth's had in handling a massive Premier League club as his first job. But Wenger's experience is incredible, he's a winner and when people like him talk you've got to listen - and we do.
"He's much more approachable than his media image would suggest.
"I could sit and listen to him all day. Because even when the likes of him or Sir Alex Ferguson lose or draw to you they're not happy but they're decent enough people to have a bit chat after the game."
