Video: Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger discusses facing Aston Villa boss Remi Garde

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has spoken about going up against his former dressing room spy Remi Garde.

Garde was one of the first players signed by Wenger after his arrival at the north London club and he was considered to be the new manager’s eyes in the dressing room.

Wenger says he spoke to his ex-player before he took the Aston Villa job, but has since been letting him get on with his work.

The pair will enjoy a reunion tomorrow when their two sides meet in the Premier League.
