"Arsenal is the love of my life. I turned many, many, many clubs down to face the challenge when we built the [Emirates] stadium," said Wenger. "I speak to everybody, yes I met [former United chairman] Martin Edwards, many people came to see me but I was always loyal to this club."Wenger added that he wants a peaceful ending to his longstanding rivalry with current Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho. The two have confronted each other at several points throughout the last 14 years but Wenger insisted that he did not want to engage in any sort of hostilities with Mourinho during Sunday's match. "I respect him a lot, and I don't want to go into individual [comments]," added Wenger. "You should leave me a little bit of peace for my final weeks, and not try to push me into a final confrontation. I want to go peacefully, with Mourinho as well because he's a great manager."
