Arsene Wenger's Greatest Quotes
by The Verminator Wed Jun 22, 2011 11:19 pm
A little but different but this should be fun
[On how long Tomas Rosicky would be ruled out for at the start of his 18-month recuperation] "Days not weeks."
"We were considering him [Ruud van Nistelrooy] and Francis Jeffers and, in the end, we went for Jeffers."
[Upon being asked if he had received the apology that Sir Alex had announced he had sent to Wenger] "No. Perhaps he sent it by horse."
[After the success of the Great Britain team at the Olympics] "I didn't know the English were good at swimming. I have been in this country for 12 years and I haven't seen a swimming pool."
[After the departure of Sol Campbell to Portsmouth] "It is a big surprise to me because he cancelled his contract to go abroad. Have you sold Portsmouth to a foreign country?"
Those are my favourites

On his philosophy in 2007:
"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."
On Arsenal's 2-1 defeat to United at Old Trafford in 2009:
"The penalty decision was Old Traffordish."
On Adebyaor's stamp on van Persie during Arsenal's 4-2 defeat to City in 2009:
"You ask 100 people, 99 will say it's very bad and the 100th will be Mark Hughes."
About Nani predicting the outcome of the league in 2010:
"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."
On Reyes leaving Arsenal:
"Despite the global warming, England is still not warm enough for him."
Also, as an Englishman, this one is just so true:
"At a young age winning is not the most important thing... the important thing is to develop creative and skilled players with good confidence."

"I tried to watch the Tottenham match on television in my hotel yesterday, but I fell asleep."
[On Jose Mourinho after the then Chelsea boss accused him of being a voyeur] "He's out of order, disconnected with reality and disrespectful. When you give success to stupid people, it makes them more stupid sometimes and not more intelligent."

[Upon being asked what he does with his spare time] "I watch football."
"When I first came to Arsenal, I realised the back four were all university graduates in the art of defending. As for Tony Adams, I consider him to be a doctor of defence. He is simply outstanding."
[After the Arsenal fans booed a 1-1 draw with Middlesbrough in November 1998] "If you eat caviar every day it's difficult to return to sausages."
[In response to Sir Alex Ferguson's claim that he possessed the best team in the league despite Arsenal winning the title in 2002] "Everyone thinks they have the prettiest wife at home."
"One of the things I discovered in Japan was from watching sumo wrestling. At the end you can never tell who has won the fight, and who has lost, because they do not show their emotion because it could embarrass the loser. It is unbelievable. That is why I try to teach my team politeness. It is only here in England that everybody pokes their tongue out when they win."
"At some clubs success is accidental. At Arsenal it is compulsory."
"We do not buy superstars. We make them."
[Arsene Wenger responds after Sir Alex Ferguson has a dig at Arsenal for their lack of homegrown players] I’m ready to take the blame for all the problems of English football if that is what he wants.
