“When I arrived at Man City, he was ready to be the head coach since day one. Every single bit of his advice was so important - it was exactly what the player wants to hear, especially for the young players,“ he said.
“After every single session, he used to work a lot with the young players and the exercises, talks and advice were so, so important. That’s the amazing quality he has. You can be a top [former] footballer, but you may not know what you should say or when you should say it. He’s got this quality.
“I’ve been surprised since I came to Arsenal. He’s obviously improved since I saw him the last time at City, he’s amazing. I hope and I have no doubt he is going to grow as a manager for sure.”
