Arsene Wenger: I don't know where my FA Cup medals are
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger admits he does not know where his FA Cup medals are.
Speaking to former Arsenal player Martin Keown, Wenger said "Martin, I don't even know where they are, that tells you that I don’t look back."
Speaking ahead of the FA Cup quarter final against Manchester United, the Frenchman told Keown that he prefers to look back at memories rather than medals.
"When I meet the former players I remember what kind of people they were rather then what I won with them. People who were reliable, gave their best - that’s something that you respect much more then anything else."
"I prefer a box of memories because when you’re in this job, what is very interesting is that you can have an influence on people's lives and they have a big influence on your life as well."
"The medals which are important of course, but they’re not the only things that matter." he said.
