Arsène Wenger [l’Olympia 2019] on the art of managing the dressin room: "You have 25 predators in front of you. They smell and detect everything and especially your weakness. You have to be vigilant as a coach.” [1/?]
Arsène: “The job of a coach can be summed up this way: selecting 11 players and 14 unemployed on weekends. That repeats itself every week, so you have to be smart and carful to not lose the interest and focus of your group.” [2/?]
Arsène: “On match days, I only took care of the playing squad. But from Monday to Wednesday, I had to focus on the disappointed. How to cheer them up? Be firm and honest and also carry the values that you embody.” [3/?]
