Arsene Wenger may be wanted out of Arsenal by a number of fans but there is no getting away from the fact that the Frenchman remains one of the best managers out there at the moment and a host of clubs would be interested in his services if he were to leave the Gunners at the end of the season.

French giants Paris Saint-Germain have widely been mentioned as the club with the biggest interest in acquiring the services of Wenger and the Daily Star have gone on to claim that the Parisians have already placed a one year contract on the table for the 67-year-old to consider, as they look to replace under fire manager Unai Emery next season.

Sagna: Wenger as good as Sir Alex Ferguson

Amid all protests being held against Arsene Wenger at the moment, a host of ex-Arsenal stars have come out in defence of their former manager and now even Bacary Sagna has lent his support to the under pressure French manager.

Speaking ahead of Manchester City’s encounter against the Gunners, Sagna stated his belief that Wenger is as good as legendary Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson, before going on to claim that the 67-year-old is the man who made Arsenal what they are today.

Sagna told the Sun, “For me, Wenger’s a top manager, up there with Ferguson, right at the top. I see him fighting to carry on because the club is his life, he loves the club.

“I’ve been there with him at Arsenal and I see the way he is hurting at the minute. But in my opinion he is Arsenal, he has made Arsenal."

Wenger: I’m not bigger than Arsenal

Arsene Wenger has been allowed to continue in his post as manager of Arsenal despite numerous disappointing seasons over the last few years and there has been accusations leveled towards the veteran boss in recent times that he can get away with anything at the Emirates Stadium due to his past record with the club.

However, Wenger has gone on to refute such claims by stating that he is not bigger than Arsenal and insisted that players join the Gunners because of their standing as a club rather than due to his influence.

The Gunners’ boss said, "Arsenal is a world brand today, respected all over the world, and the Arsenal name is bigger than my name and come to Arsenal is more important than… you don't come to Arsene Wenger, you come to Arsenal."

I was 29 years old when he took chagre and my first game was in 1974, I was there whilst we were winning at Anfield, in Europe (which Wenger still hasn't done) so don't tell me not to talk about Arsenal. How old were you?

Mr wenger you have helped Arsenal with growth and the team have been great but at the moment the players are not given or trying to get a results if I was the manager of the Arsenal I would sell half of them and get back the winning mentality.

with all due respect Wenger did NOT make Arsenal. Yes he has made us better but to say he MADE us is ridiculous, we are a giant club before he came and will be after he has gone. There is NO ONE in our history that will bigger than the club. I respect all he did for us but the telling word in that line is DID, he is longer able to take us forward and needs to do the decent thing and leave. He is already poisoning his legacy in the eyes of many. So do the right thing Arsene and go.
