Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger says he's happy to see White Hart Lane being torn down.

The current White Hart Lane is an old school ground, tight, the fans on top of the pitch and the atmosphere is always red-hot for Arsenal games.

“I personally won't miss it but what I like is the atmosphere," said Wenger ahead of today's North London derby. “What makes English football special is the fact that the fans live the game.

“For me, there's two kinds of supporters, the supporters you get in some foreign countries who sing the same song during the whole game, or some different songs but not linked with the game. In England, the fans live the game every ball.

“When there's a corner the sound goes up. When there's a foul the sound goes up and that makes English football special and completely apart from everywhere else."
