Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger feels the game's biggest clubs should always entertain.

Wenger said that the big sides like Barcelona, Real Madrid, Manchester United and Liverpool have all remained faithful to that ethos.

In a wide ranging interview with the Arsenal Magazine, Wenger said: "I always think that the respect for the fans comes when you have the desire as a coach to give them something on a Saturday afternoon that makes them happy.

"I believe that fans should always be able to wake up on a Saturday morning and their first thought should be 'yes, my team is playing today, it could be great'.

"I also believe that the positive idea of a football club is to have a desire for style. If big clubs don't have that, then I think something is missing. Throughout the history of the game, the big club sides and the big national teams always had that desire.

"Whether it is Brazil, or the big teams like Barcelona and Real Madrid. And I think Arsenal has a positive reputation on that front. The big English teams – Liverpool, Man United and so on – always had that as well. It is basically an obligation for you as a coach."
