Portsmouth boss Tony Adams is ready to return to Arsenal.
"We've been trying to win football games and getting done on counter-attacks and Arsenal are probably the best team in the country at counter-attacking," he said.
"So that's going to be very difficult for us and resources are low. We need to put things right quickly.
"It's never easy going there you've got to play them at some stage and in some ways maybe it's the perfect place to go.
"I worked at Arsenal for a long, long time and enjoyed every minute of it and I'm delighted and honoured that the fans respect me so much. I love that so much.
"But I'm working for another club at the moment and trying to win a football game so that's the context and perspective of it."
