Arsene Wenger: I may look constipated, but I do have a funny side… and I’m a big Bob Marley fan

In an interview with Le Parisien, the 66-year-old admitted he was a different person away from football.

“With my job, I am often stressed, so I might appear a bit like a constipated person,” said Wenger. “But I like to laugh when I am with my friends and to let my humorous side reign free, something that I obviously cannot do in front of the media.

“You know that you can quickly cause irreparable damage when you have my job. I am more interested in controlling that.”

Wenger also revealed the soundtrack to his daily drive to training: Bob Marley.

“Yes, I love his music and the man that he was,” said Wenger. “He was not ‘fabricated’. He was real. I love people who do not have conventional paths and who stand out because of their talent. Raymond Devos and Pierre Desproges are also some of my favourite comedians.”
