Arteta played under the Frenchman and eventually became the Gunners’ captain.
The 70-year-old is backing Arteta to bring back the glory days at the Emirates.
“I worry about the club still a lot and I watch all of the games,” Wenger told TalkSport.
“I believe there is a culture in the way to play football at Arsenal that I want to be respected, and I hope Mikel can get that back.”
