Having played under Arsene Wenger for five years, it is no surprise that Mikel Arteta has been asking our former manager for advice.
The Spaniard says he has not been in contact specifically about the Heads Up FA Cup final, but has been speaking to his old boss throughout his time in charge.
"I've been in touch over the last few months a few times with him but not before the final," Arteta said.
"It's a private conversation. It's great to have him on board and he gives me great advice. Just talking to him, you know?
"He has such a knowledge. He's such an intelligent person, just knowing that he's there and he's going to be supporting us and supporting me, it makes me feel calmer.
"I think you can talk about anything with him and you can take the book out and make some notes."
