The agent of Arsenal striker Alexandre Lacazette insists he's happy playing for Arsene Wenger.

There's been claims Wenger doesn't trust Lacazette in big games, having started him on the bench for defeat at Manchester City on Sunday.

However, Lacazette's agent David Venditelli told SFR Sport: "It's not worrying, because he played at Chelsea.

"Our way of working is to relativise things: 11 matches, nine starts.

“Of course, it's not nice to see that he didn't start that match, but it was - as Arsene Wenger explained - for tactical reasons.

“He's learning. Alex needs to have calm around him. He's happy, and Arsenal are too with his work.

“It's not because a player doesn't play, even though it's two important games of course. He would have preferred to have played them."

Venditelli added: “When you're outside the club, I can understand the questions.

"I understand, but I think Alex isn't complaining about his playing time, even if he would prefer to start games like those against City or Liverpool.

"But he talks to the manager, the staff - there's no problem.

“Afterwards, there's a choice made. You can't, every time your player doesn't play, even if it's Alexandre Lacazette, knock on the door or pick up the phone and talk to the manager.

“No, no, it's not time yet. Everything is fine."
