Wenger's message to Arsenal fans

Arsene Wenger told Arsenal fans to get some “perspective” and remember what he has done for the club.

Wenger has come under mounting pressure with fans hiring planes to stage a protest, banners calling for him to go and even demonstrations outside the Emirates.

Wenger laughed when the beIN Sports interviewer quizzed him about the plane flying a banner in the sky during Arsenal’s defeat at West Brom.

When asked whether there were mixed feelings, Wenger said: “Of course because my job is to make 100% of people happy and if you look at where the club was when I arrived and where the club is today, I think I am quite proud of what I did for the club.

“Today we live in a period where people are very demanding and I can understand that but I know as well that I have guided this club through very difficult periods with very, very, very limited resources."
