Arsene Wenger sees common ground with Pep Guardiola

Arsene Wenger believes there are similarities between him and Pep Guardiola but insists the Manchester City boss has had it easy compared to his own arrival into English football.

The Spaniard has been criticised in recent weeks as his City side fell off the pace at the top of the Premier League following a run of three wins in their last six league games.

That run leaves them in fourth place, seven adrift of leaders Chelsea and a point behind Arsenal, who are the visitors to the Etihad Stadium tomorrow.
