Arsenal boss ready to help England’s World Cup bid

Wenger believes England deserve to host the tournament in 2018.

“I am a big supporter of the England bid for the World Cup in 2018. If I can help them, I would be very happy,” said the Gunners boss.

“This country deserves the World Cup. They have not had it for a long time.

“It is not normal that the country which created the sport has not had the World Cup since 1966.

“Countries like Germany have had it twice.”

He added on the England bid: “I do not understand a lot of stories that the campaign is not run in a good way.

“I don’t know how you can say it is run good or bad. If you have the infrastructure, the stadiums, the passion, the power to organise, I don’t understand a lot of all the rest.

“But if I can help, I would be happy to do it.

“However, I have a job to do here and I must focus on that.”
