Arsene Wenger gave Arsenal players a speech like Al Pacino in Any Given Sunday, says Theo Walcott

Arsene Wenger may not be known as the most explosive presence in the dressing room but Theo Walcott has revealed how the Arsenal boss channelled his inner Al Pacino.

Wenger has had cause to unleash his frustration over recent weeks; in only one of their last six games have they been leading at half-time and in two of those games they have been trailing.

And Walcott revealed that one of Wenger’s speeches was so inspirational it put him in mind of Pacino’s famous performance as Tony D’Amato, head coach of the Miami Sharks, in Any Given Sunday.

"He did a speech the other day," Walcott told Arsenal’s Youtube channel.

"I won't be able to do the speech because it was that good. It genuinely reminded me of that film 'Any Given Sunday' and I actually said that to him!

"I was a bit embarrassed and didn't know if he'd seen the film, but he showed his passion and how long it's been since we've won the title.

"He wants it like all of his players, but you can tell he really wants it which is really good to see."

Wenger’s speech may well have paid off; after disappointing defeats to Everton and Manchester City Arsenal have won five and drawn one, progressing to the fourth round of the FA Cup and reaching second in the Premier League.
