Freddie Ljungberg has been our interim head coach for a matter of days - but has he had the chance to chat to any of his key managerial influences yet?

The Swede played under Arsene Wenger for nine years, and says he is looking forward to catching up with him and Sven-Goran Eriksson.

"No [I've not spoken to Wenger yet]," Ljungberg said. "I would really like to speak to him. I’m in contact with him but I haven’t spoken to him because it’s been a bit hectic, but it’s on my list to do so.

"Sven is intelligent, I spoke to him a lot when he was the manager of England because he was watching our games. I know in the past, some stories of how he treated players and how he made them feel good and things like that.

"I have stolen a little bit of those ideas. He’s a great coach, it’s been a long time, and I hope I can speak to him soon."
