Arsene Wenger has had much to deal with criticism from frustrated Arsenal Fans.
Their anger was fueled by Arsenal’s 3 – 2 defeat to Stoke City last weekend; some fans confronted the Frenchman and lashed at him with harsh words.
The tension subdued after Arsenal qualified for the Champions League knockout stage, but Newcastle manager Alan Pardew has a few words for the Gunners fans.
Pardew said the 65-year-old veteran deserves more respect from Arsenal supporters and even suggested that the club should consider re-naming their stadium after him.
“The incident at the train station was totally disrespectful,” said the Newcastle boss.
“I think 90 percent of Arsenal fans would have been ashamed of that and we could get the backlash of it. The crowd on Saturday will want to show how much they love him.
“Their stadium should be named after Arsene. The job he did with that move across from Highbury, when he had all that debt and had to be very careful with his transfer budget, was incredible. It was a miracle that he kept them in the Champions League.
“After Sir Alex Ferguson, he’s the best manager in Premier League history. Jose Mourinho hasn’t done enough yet [to compete with them].”
