​Arsenal legend Seaman backs Wenger extension

Arsenal legend David Seaman feels that manager Arsene Wenger is still the right man to carry the club forward.

Wenger signed a two-year extension with the club on Wednesday, despite fans calling for him to leave the post.

"I'm very happy Arsene has signed for another two years and it's [about] moving forward," Seaman told Omnisport. "He's definitely the ideal man.

"There is stuff that needs to change. We've got to start attracting the top players again and that might mean moving the wage structure a bit.

"That's the way of attracting the top players, obviously paying the right fees as well. We still need a few players, it's been like that for a few seasons now and it's time people realise that's what needs to be done."

After months of speculation, Wenger finally signed a new two-year deal with the club earlier this week.
