Arsenal owner Stan Kroenke has given his full support to under-fire boss Arsene Wenger.

Arsenal owner Stan Kroenke has given his full support to under-fire boss Arsene Wenger.

The Frenchman has been in the spotlight following the Gunners’ poor start to the season as well as their failure to secure any silverware since 2005. Kroenke told the Daily Telegraph in a rare interview:

“Maybe it is one of those times when we have to work our way through, maybe with some young players.

“Arsene has been really good at developing these guys, people like Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Jack Wilshere. There are some really good players that Arsene thinks can be special.

“Sometimes you go through periods like that. Arsene’s our man. As an owner, that’s who we put our confidence in.”

“With Arsene, it’s his decision and only he will know that.

“He still maintains himself in tremendous physical shape. You have to have stamina and energy.

“Arsene has great energy and that will always be his decision.”

The American conceded it was Wenger’s decision to sell former captain Cesc Fabregas.

“That was between Arsene and him,” the American added. “I like the kid but I’m not going to change his mind. Arsene made the decision.

“If we wanted to be really hard about it, we could have done but Arsene believed that it was the right way to do it.

“I also get it on Nasri. If we didn’t do something on Nasri people would be looking at us next summer and saying, ‘Why didn’t you do this?’

“We bought in a lot of resources that we can use on other players. I honestly didn’t make the decision on Nasri.

“Of course the board talks about these things but at the end of the day, that’s for Arsene.”
