Tony Adams has admitted he would love the opportunity to manage former club Arsenal.

The Gunners legend, who spent 18-years at the club, says he would relish the chance to succeed Arsene Wenger at Emirates Stadium.

Adams is currently working as assistant manager to Harry Redknapp at Portsmouth but he has never hidden his desire to be a manager in his own right again after a disappointing spell at Wycombe.

Dream

"I would love a crack at the Arsenal job. I went there the other day and the stadium is magnificent," Adams told the Sunday Mirror.

"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."
