It was 2-2 in a swinging history away against Norwich on Sunday, in what was Fredrik Ljungberg's first match as temporary head coach at Arsenal after Unai Emery was fired two days earlier.
On Thursday, the home premiere awaits Brighton, and Ljungberg has talked about what coaches he is inspired by in his own, early, deed alongside the pitch.
This includes Sven-Göran "Svennis" Eriksson.
The 71-year-old from Torsby who, among other things, won the Uefac Cup with IFK Gothenburg, took Lazio to the league title in Italy - and not least became England's first foreign national team in 2001.
- Sven is intelligent. I talked to him a lot when he was England's captain, because he saw our matches. I've been told before about how he treated his players - how he did to make them feel good and the like. I've been spinning some of those ideas. He is a very good coach, but it was a long time since I talked to him - I hope it can be done soon, says Ljungberg.
Want to talk to WengerAnother experienced coach that Ljungberg intends to have a conversation with shortly is Arsène Wenger.
Understood.
The Frenchman coached Arsenal for 22 years and was involved in taking Ljungberg to the club in 1998. The rest is modern Arsenal history; Ljungberg was among the most involved in two league titles and three FA Cup titles during his time in the "Gunners".
- I really want to talk to him. We usually hear from time to time, but I haven't got it now because it's been so hectic. But there is on my list of things to do, says Ljungberg.
- He was here for 22 years so he obviously has a lot of experience. And he probably knows some things that he thinks are important and that he can share with me, which can make me a better coach.

Ljungberg says it will be a proud moment to lead Arsenal at home - and that there is only one way to make the atmosphere at Emirates Stadium better.
- The fans want us to win matches and to play good football, he says.
