Tony Adams' Arsenal dream
Published 00:00 24/08/08 By By Marc Isaacs
Tony Adams is desperate to take over from Arsene Wenger as the next Arsenal manager - and he hopes to become an even better coach than the Frenchman.
Adams was idolised by Arsenal fans during his 18-year spell with the club as he captained the side to four league titles.
The former England captain has slowly worked his way up the coaching ladder following spells at Wycombe, Feyenoord, Utrecht and now working as Harry Redknapp's assistant at Portsmouth.
Adams (below) made an immediate impact at Fratton Park helping Portsmouth to win the FA Cup last season. And one day he wants the chance to succeed Wenger at The Emirates.
Adams said: "I would love a crack at the Arsenal job. I went there the other day and the stadium is magnificent.
"The squad, the finance, they are an unbelievable football club. Who in their right mind would not want a crack at that?
"I will have strengths and weaknesses, very different from Arsene. I am a different person. Don't laugh but I believe I am stronger in some areas and in others he is far greater than me."
