Arsene Wenger says he will definitely be managing next season, whether at Arsenal "or somewhere else".
Wenger, 67, was speaking at the end of one of the most turbulent weeks of his 21-year tenure as Gunners boss.
After Wednesday's 5-1 Champions League defeat by Bayern Munich, several ex-players said they believed his time in charge was coming to an end.
Wenger's contract expires at the end of this season, and he said he would decide on a new deal in March or April.
The Frenchman said: "No matter what happens I will manage for another season. Whether it's here or somewhere else, that is for sure.
"If I said March or April it is because I didn't know. I do not want to come back on that.
"I am used to the criticism. I think in life it's important to do what you think is right and all the rest is judgement. I am in a public job and I have to accept that, but I have to behave with my values." BBC
