Arsene Wenger: 'Arsenal players deserve support of fans'

Arsene Wenger encourages Arsenal's fans to continue to support the club's players in his parting speech at the Emirates Stadium.

Manager Arsene Wenger has bid farewell to the Emirates Stadium by calling on Arsenal's supporters to continue to back the team.

On Sunday afternoon, Wenger watched on as the Gunners recorded a 5-0 win over Burnley in his final home game in charge as the Frenchman prepares to end his 22-year reign.

Many of the first-team squad have come in for criticism this season, but Wenger says that the players of the North London outfit deserve the support of the fans.

On the pitch at the Emirates Stadium, Wenger said: "Before I start, I just want to say that at Arsenal we care and I would like to wish my fellow manager [Sir Alex] Ferguson well, very quickly.

"Thank you for having me for such a long time but above all, I'm like you - I'm an Arsenal fan. I will always be an Arsenal fan. It is what unites us in every cell of our body, those dreams and worries. I would like to thank everyone at the club who makes this club so special.

"This group of players has special quality, not only on the pitch, but off it too. Support them next season, because they deserve it. I will miss you. Thank you for being such an important part of my life. I hope to see you soon."

Wenger's final two games are away from home, with trips to Leicester City and Huddersfield Town to come over the next week.
