“He was maybe a bit scared” – Arsenal legend sheds light on Arsene Wenger’s lack of authority

The Arsene Wenger period has since a long time ago went at Arsenal, however the Frenchman's shadow keeps on hanging over the Emirates Stadium.

Following 22 years at the Gunners' rudder, it was ostensibly the ideal time for Wenger to move to one side, however one of his previous players has spoken about his absence of control towards specific people, maybe adding to his possible defeat.

Cesc Fabregas, in a selective meeting with Arseblog, recommended that his previous chief was frightened to do as such.

"All in all he was extremely quiet," he said. "He had that with me and numerous others. [… ] I think he simply didn't care to murder a player. He played a ton with the psychological part of the game and he knows, as for instance, a player like Thierry Henry or Patrick Vieira they are so solid intellectually – he doesn't have to reveal to them anything.

"He realizes that they comprehend what they need to do, that on the off chance that they played severely, the following day they will improve. He didn't have to reveal to them anything, however in others perhaps you realize he was possibly somewhat frightened that on the off chance that he discloses to them something too, perhaps they will crumple, they will put their head down.

"He was constantly somewhat apprehensive. Perhaps in eight years I saw Arsene extremely irate at half-time at Anfield and a few times more."

For somebody who was so very much respected at Arsenal, Fabregas' words will without a doubt hit a nerve.
