Arsene Wenger is finally listening to me... now let's see if he can get Arsenal back to where they belong By ADRIAN DURHAM

It would be conceited of me to take any kind of credit for the changes in recent seasons that have brought trophies to Arsenal and potentially re-positioned them as future challengers for the big honours – Champions League and Premier League.

But it’s hard to ignore the fact that Wenger has U-turned and is now following the instructions I’ve been giving him for just under a decade.

So in short, since I left the Stade de France after that Champions League final defeat in 2006, I have been saying Arsenal needed to do a number of things differently. After all this time – Wenger has finally listened and learned.

- I told Wenger to sharpen up his act and be more shrewd in his transfer and contract dealings, and he listened.

- I told Wenger to spend big instead of sell big and give the fans the stars they deserve to see – he listened.

- I told Wenger to admit his mistakes and stop wasting time on bang-average players who were taking too much money out of the club, and not putting enough back in – he listened.

The important thing is that you learn from your mistakes, so let’s see if the new, improved Durham-esque Wenger can finally put Arsenal back where they belong.
