Arsenal legend Robert Pires believes Arsene Wenger needs to ‘inject some youth’ into backroom staff
The former France international trained with the Gunners last season and has been a vocal advocate of the Emirates boss
ROBERT PIRES claims Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger "needs to inject some youth" into his backroom staff.
The Gunners legend, who spent six years in north London, won two Premier League titles and as many FA Cups while with the club.
Pires, who trained with Wenger's men last season, told RMC: “He [Wenger] needs to inject some youth into his staff, it’s important.”
“He loves his job. No-one can teach him anything, and I won’t.
“But football has changed, the footballers have changed, their behaviour isn’t the same, and football is getting faster and faster.
“Perhaps his entourage and he need to adapt to this new football.
“I don’t want him to leave, but he will have to inject some freshness around him”.
The Frenchman has been a vocal supporter for Wenger's management despite fan unrest.
