Arsene Wenger: I had it harder than Pep Guardiola, it was more difficult for foreign managers 20 years ago

Pep Guardiola may feel like he is getting a rough ride at the moment, but Arsene Wenger claimed on Friday that it was harder for foreign managers when he arrived at Arsenal 20 years ago.

Manchester City boss Guardiola has come in for growing criticism during a run of just five wins in 16 games and many supporters are unconvinced by goalkeeper Claudio Bravo, the Chilean who was signed at the expense of Joe Hart.

There will be no let-up if City lose to Arsenal on Sunday, which could see them fall 10 points behind leaders Chelsea.
