Arsenal boss Wenger: English food culture has changed since I arrived

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger feels the Premier League has helped change the food culture in England.

According to the manager, English culture has changed a great deal since the mid-1990s.

"When I arrived here in October 1996 you would look around at the players during breakfast and you look around today and it has completely changed. The drinking culture still exists for some people when they are young but in France that exists also," he told arsenal.com.

"You can open any paper today and you will see a different diet in there and that has an influence on people.

"The whole culture has changed in England. People are more health conscious now. People like Lee Dixon and Steve Bould could see with the influx of foreign players that things should change. Every year gained was vital for them."
