Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger admits he listens to criticism.

"I believe I have been strong because I've continued to believe in this team when nobody else believed in it," he said.

"I stayed loyal to my principles when everyone was saying to me that I was going wrong.

"I took a step back from the criticism. I'm not running after personal glory. Everything I do is for the club, the players and the supporters.

"You can't do a public job, at a great club, not win matches and say that they are all imbeciles."
