Barcelona midfielder Alex Song claims former boss Arsene Wenger was like a father to him at Arsenal.
Adapting
Song is settling in well to life at Barca and insists he has had no problems adapting.
He added: "The food is fine. What I've seen of the city I love and we have a great team. Everything is perfect. It has been very easy to come here and adapt."
It has helped to have former Arsenal team-mate Cesc Fabregas already at the club and Song has been leaning on the Spain international in the early months of his time at Camp Nou.
"I have known him for a long time and I slept at his house for the first few nights I was here," said Song. "He's a good friend. He tries to help me in training, in every game, on and off the field."
"I asked for advice because he knows the city of Barcelona very well. He was born here and has advised me well. He told me what to do and what not to do."
