Stan Kroenke on Arsene Wenger “I really enjoy Arsene,” “Very smart, very intelligent man, as we all know. He is fun to talk to about a variety of subjects. I think our backgrounds... He was trained in economics, my undergraduate study was in economics. “I enjoy talking with him, he is a very interesting guy. He has an absolute view on how he runs that team and the club. He has earned that right. “Don’t look for me to interfere with that. I have learnt over the years that sometimes owners try do that and it is not so good. “Guys who try to say that we should push Arsene harder to spend and so on, that’s fair enough, there’s always lots of opinions, but Arsene is an independent thinker, planner, works very hard at it, has a wonderful record and history. “If you go to his practices - I had my son and a bunch of his friends at the training ground last year - a couple of them are NBA players and were over here with us for the Olympics. We were standing out in the rain, watching. Arsene is out there all the time. This was going on for several hours. It rained like hell. Lightning. “I was getting worried about players getting hit by lightning and Arsene was out in the middle of it. He’s up there, coaching them every day. “You’ve got to love that or you can’t do it. That’s a passion.”
