Arsenal FC news: 'It's like me telling Tom Jones he can't sing!' - Fans react to Tony Adams' criticism of Arsene Wenger

Fans have been reacting in their numbers after Tony Adams' outspoken comments about Arsene Wenger.

The Arsenal legend only represented the north Londoners in a 19-year career, playing under Wenger for five-and-a-half years in that period.

The Granada boss is highly regarded at the Emirates and he claims he tried to return on four occasions in a coaching capacity, but was overlooked each time. Adams reckons he is too big a character for Wenger and that counted against him.

His autobiography, Sober, is being serialised in The Sun and he even claimed Wenger 'couldn't coach his way out of a paper bag' and the former defender's 'occasional willingness to pass comment on him and the team probably counted against [my chances]'.
