Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger, who is set to sign a new contract at the club following his side's FA Final win over Hull City, has said that he had been questioning himself all the time after the club went so long without winning a trophy.

Wenger, said that one lives in a world where people are always being told what they have not done, but never what they have done.

However, with the FA Cup trophy ending Arsenal's nine year drought, the Frenchman has revealed that he will sign a new three-year deal worth around 8 million-pounds a year with Arsenal, the Daily Star reported.

Wenger said that he would go to Brazil for the World Cup on June 10 and the deal would be completed before then.

The Frenchman has also confirmed that he is planning to bring in three players this summer including Ivorian international Serge Aurier, who plays as right back for French club Toulouse, the report added.
