Former Arsenal manager Wenger fully supporting Emery

Arsene Wenger says he fully backs his Arsenal successor Unai Emery.

The Spaniard finished fifth in his first season after Wenger's departure from the club.

And Wenger has been pleased with Emery's work.

"I'm not here to judge coaches. I am a supporter of Arsenal Football Club, so I just support him," Wenger said. "But he can win games and he plays a type of game that I like.

"A club like Arsenal is a huge responsibility and one of those responsibilities is to play attractive football. After that, I think the most important thing is to support the team and to win games."
