What Wenger managed to achieve with the amount of resourses he had availiable was criminally underrated. Does anybody think that Guardiola, Klopp or Conte could do better than top 4 if they had to sell their best players every year only to replace them with much cheaper alternatives?

Arsenal's decline was no fault of Wenger's, it was purely down to the lack of investment from the board. His genius kept Arsenal relevant and they have fallen off a cliff ever since he left. Some Arsenal fans should be ashamed of themselves for the abuse and hatred they directed towards their greatest ever manager

It is easier to see these issues more clearly in hindsight. At the time, fans did not know how little was actually invested in the club. Wenger, being a professional, did not speak up against the ownership or the board during his time there. This unfortunately led to him taking the blame for the state of the club and hurting his legacy when the real blame lied with the ownership.

he did a good job seeing Arsenal through the financial transition of the Emirates ( though some poor decisions made in finance to not compete for that long after moving a stadium when we look at other teams not crippled by such a move). Still, he stayed too long and his approach to football was way in the past. Arsenal's scouting had to be totally revamped the past few years because it was so so dated. Football is very data-driven now, and thats not the type of manager AW was. He was also too sentimental to a fault trusting in players that just weren't good enough. AW had to go for the club to change. Even the awkward Emery phase was necessary, but AW was keeping the club in a stagnant state while football kept moving on.

Did you forget how opposing fans used to sing 'Arsene Wenger we want you to stay'? Jesus, people have such a short memory, they remember whatever suits them and their one dimensional view of the world. Every other club wanted Wenger to remain at Arsenal because they knew Arsenal will never be a threat again with him in charge. That's why likes of Gary Neville were saying 'be careful what you wish for' - he knew it is better for United if Wenger stays. Now, signing Emery or Arteta instead is a completely another matter - Wenger had to go, end of story.

Having said that, he was not supported enough in the transfer market (especially after the stadium was built) and his late 90s - early 00s period cements him as an Arsenal legend, Arsene's Invincibles will always be a legendary side.

A giant of a man, with an even bigger legacy. Building a new stadium was ahead of its time. You only have to look at spurs and other clubs for the costs involved now. The stadium is his legacy. That and he made arsenal relevant and competitive over his era. England is blessed to have a lot of clubs with rich histories and trophies in the cabinet but he took arsenal to another level. Relevant in terms of arsenal being considered a big 2 then 4 the 6 club during a time of massive media exposure. Losing dein was the biggest blow and I think wenger took on more responsibility with getting the transfer right/making the numbers add up. Spot on about viera. In the latter years arsenal were viewed as a bit soft and wenger never brought or found another viera type player who be offended at the though of losing. I think in his 2nd last season arsenal finished 5th with 75 points. Probably the highest points total for a club that missed out on champions league football. Honestly all things being equal I think he worked miracles at the club, played entertaining football and if any of us were playing a football manager game we all be aiming to replicate everything he achieved.

He revolutionalised English Football and people like me from the Countries became fans of Football and Arsenal - begun to like Football because of him and Ferguson. He wasn't backed financially and he still kept Arsenal relevant for more than 2 decades. Cannot think of any other manager other than these two legends to do it for so long and SAF was backed every single year of his reign.

Wenger's clubs always played good footie until his retirement. Wenger's players also IMO got better under him, there just wasn't much talent at the end. I think his biggest problem was that he just kept selling his best players to rival clubs. He pretty much gave the title to Man U when he handed them RVP a title they could have won w/ VanPersie (the whole thanks for the league title here's Danny Welbeck was just twisting the knife). For a while it also seemed like Arsenal was Man City's farm club. And OK sure, players want to go sometimes, and if say City wants to pay for a squad player like when spurs sold Kyle Walker, fine, but for the stars just jeez ship them out the country like Liverpool or Spurs do.

To be fair to Arsene's "detractors," they only got loud in his last 3 seasons with the club which the club was falling in those years. To them, it seemed like the wheels were falling off with Wenger in charge (which they were starting to) while clubs like Man City and Chelsea were getting new managers and winning league titles. I used to follow AFTV and a lot of people just look at the shouting and ranting as if these people really hated Arsene. They were annoyed with him staying "too long" but more fed up with the club. They acknowledge his legacy but felt the club shouldn't simply be defined by only him. For me, the writing on the wall for Arsene was blowing the league to Leicester City in 2016. All of the big clubs except Arsenal were doing poorly, were out of sorts and in transition phases so it was the easiest opportunity to win the league and then blew it to a club that had narrowly escaped relegation the previous season, had a fraction of the salary, who Arsenal also defeated both home & away. That was quite the indictment on Arsene's ability.

Everything past 2015 was a joke. The summer window of 2015 was such a slap into the face. If Wenger thought: This is the best side I can assamble + Cech, than Arsenal fans weren't that delusional to say:Wtf? I also think the magnifying effect of people shouting on Social media-making everyone else believe all Arsenal fans are against him, is overstated. The years of not spending but charging exuberant were the build up for the pay off of his last few years. And the pay off was not good at all.

It's difficult. As a rival fan (Chelsea) I can't lie I never felt Arsenal were a serious threat for the last 10 years or so of his reign, one thing in particular where I really understood Arsenal fans frustrations was his 'pet project' players - he gave players who were never gunna be good enough WAY too much time rather than cutting loose, but I was very much in the "be careful what you wish for" camp all the same. He was keeping them in the conversation all the time with squads that could've easily fallen away under lesser managers. The match where I felt maybe it's time for him to step aside was the 0-3 defeat vs. City in the league, after the 0-3 defeat in the League Cup final. Even as a Chelsea fan that was depressing to watch lol

No. One thing that does not get mentioned is the carry job that mainly Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Özil did till 2017. There were some quality players offensively. But sorry. He never brought a good keeper or a really good defender past ~ 2010 into the club with or without money. And the Mustafi Xhaka Laca, Mkhi transfers were by far not his best signings.

Although he was competing against bigger, bright dogs I had the impression from around 10-16 if you'd got a top manager in you could've REALLY kicked on & became something special because of him.

@@HHHBFResurrected Problem is: They said: Arsene please go now. Thing is the guys like Gazidis and Raul Sanlehi that chose the next manager were total frauds and we partialy knew it. They would have never managed the situation well and I give my word on that. Heck the move after was also risky af. And what we are hanging on atm is the hope, that he will develop into a good one. But the options were dry too (Benitez, Mourinho at that time). We had an identity ... which also based on failing over and over and beeing a pushover. Its not the whole but it is a big one. Also the mystic about Wenger was held up very well. No one was allowed to do any critiscism in public without getting bombarded, because : Oh he was so good in the past. But in the present (2010s) You would not have called him a wordclass manager. In the end he would have had to step down one day. And it was hardly getting any better. Lots of people didn't want to see him continuebin order to not see him struggle. We wouldn't have dipped as low in 2020/21 with him. But one day, hebwould have stepped down and we would have had to go through the struggle. There is biologicly no way around it. And to build a longterm project around a close to 70 year old is also a hard sell. That isn't sustainable by itself.

The combination of the stadium, selling their best players to sign mediocre players while his rivals continue to strengthen and failure to adapt to the ever changing climate of football has lead Wenger to his inevitable downfall. The seasons he should have won the Premier League title is 2008, 2014 and 2016. 2008 to be fair wasn't his fault. Eduardo Da Silva suffered a horrific injury so brutal that the broadcasters had to censor the images on TV against Birmingham. After that the wheels fell off. 2014 despite ending their 9 year trophy drought and signing Mesut Ozil, he couldn't get the job done plus getting humiliated by his rivals 6-3 against City, 5-1 against Liverpool and 6-0 against Chelsea. 2016 was the year where the Manchester clubs weren't at it, Liverpool were mid table mediocrity and Chelsea had a season from hell. Wenger should have invested on a striker when he had the chance but signed a declining Cech and Elneny in the January window. In the end, relegation fodder Leicester City went on to do the unthinkable and won the Premier League title. After that it went up in smoke and failed to get Champions League football on his final 2 years. Arsenal's last Champions League appearance was in 2017 when they got slapped 10-2 on aggregate against Bayern. Those three year I've highlighted was the years Arsenal should have won the league. One wasn't his fault but the other 2 he screwed up. Wenger is partly responsible for the downfall of Arsenal but they were circumstances that played a role in the decline like forced to sell their best players to finance the Emirates stadium, signing mediocre players and youths never setting a light, change of board and ownership and rivals having more money to strengthen their teams while Arsenal was left behind. Blaming Wenger for everything wrong at Arsenal is wrong. He did get Champions League football every year with poor players and won the FA cup with these sorry lot.

I'm not normally one to comment on Football KZbin videos, but I think you have got this fairly close to the mark. The bit that you seemed to gloss over was how the landscape of the ownership model of Football changed while Arsenal were under such financial constraints with the new stadium. They made the decision to move grounds and then the Billionaires came into the game. At that point, Arsenal were in a no man's land and had to proceed and adjust. It was very unfortunate and quite unpredictable. It is a testament to Wenger that he kept Arsenal competitive during this time. Yes, he made some mistakes and yes, he remained loyal to some players for longer than he should have. Ultimately though, the ownership of the club is front and centre. Kronke is a cancer on this club and Wenger attempted to hold the Footballing side together by showing loyalty to the owner. That has always been his default position, but was ultimately the reason why he came in for such criticism from the fans. Most could not see the behind the scenes and laid the blame at his feet, largely because he fronted the club and accepted the criticism. It was only after Wenger left that most fans began to see the reality of the problems caused by the owners.

That was very true of the 5-6 years following the completion of the stadium, it is indeed very hard when you have to compete with United who already have a large stadium, Chelsea who have sugar daddy funding and no plans to move to a bigger stadium (so no costs) and Man City who had a stadium built and sold to them for peanuts. However when you look at 2013 onwards, the stadium construction costs have been almost paid back and Wenger is having large budgets to work with. Yet that was arguably the worst part of his 18 years in charge.

Fabrigas could be a club legend if he had stayed and in course we could have achieved PL. He was undoubtedly one of the few best playmakers while his time at arsenal. I vaguely remember watching him coming as a sub and scoring two goals around 2008-09. He made me fall in love with Arsenal and how they play and from then the mostly searched string in my web browser history were "Arsenal Transfer news " and "cesc fabrigas". it was a poetry on field and i was deeply hurt when he left for Barcelona.

Look at the teams that have constantly beaten Arsenal (on the pitch or on the table) and its those few teams that just keep spending hundreds of millions on the best players. Arsenal did not adapt to this. On top of that, we lost the good talents we developed, and also signed some flukes. I think its this simple: our squad quality deteriorated and there were some other clubs kept improving and still do every year. Some of our youngsters signed were amazing, but they were gone after 1 good season or even before exploding (see gnabry)

Ek se my bru, as an Arsenal fan from the mid 90's this video is put together spot on. Frustrating genius of the Arsenal. Wenger revolutioised football from the late '90s, ahead of his time.Without Wenger rivalry there would never have been those Man U teams. They fueled each other and fans were rewarded,winning or not it was world class competition. Every side on the planet realised they needed to shape up or be left behind. In my opinion the 1998-2008 Arsenal teams were absolutely fantastic to watch, last of the old guard tough physical teams before them, first of the new high-paced artists that injected the Wenger philosophies and skilled enough to pull it off without making it look difficult.

@2:57 MONEY It's bloody money. 2004-2005 Chelsea win and then for the next 10 years it was Chelsea, United and City, untouchable deep pockets. 3 for Chelsea, 5 for United and 2 for City. To add insult to injury in the next 8 years after that so from 2014-2022, it's Chelsea (1), Leicester (1), Liverpool (1) and City 5 so 2 outliers but otherwise, it's the same 2 clubs. In fact Given Arsene failed to realise that his vision for Arsenal just wasn't going to cut it, 7 clubs have won a PL title in 31 seasons. Only 4 have won multiple. The reality is that from 2004/2005 onwards in order to win a PL you had to have some deep pockets and while Leicester won in 2015-2016 Arsenal came within spitting distance in 07-08 where unfortunately they dropped crucial points after Eduardo's horrible leg break. @9:38 Ashley Cole, Van Persie, Gnabry, Szczensy and Oxlade-Chamberlain. To name a few that were missed out.

Wenger was similar to Mourinho in the way he was stubborn against criticism. Wenger as manager isn't responsible for the club's finances, he only manages/coaches the playing squad. Ok, the manager is involved in conversations about the list of transfer targets and how to prioritise them, and a long-term manager like Wenger gets a bigger say than the short-term managers today. Wengers reduced squad budget would've been frustrating for him as well as the fans. But I suppose he should've balanced his new total football, possession based team out with 2 or 3 tough guys in amongst them. What was worst for the match goers was that they were watching this reduced budget team, but they were paying for the most expensive tickets of any club in the world... the fans only live once. They work for their money, pay for tickets, and want to support genuine ambition to compete for the top titles, and their club weren't doing that. Wenger had a great track record of developing talents other coaches hadn't rated as highly... but he pushed that squad budget-management too far in the end.

He consistently got top 4 with the likes of Kieran Giibs, Frimpong, Squilachi, Gervinho, Alex Song, Park Chi Sung, I could go on and on. Just average players. He had an amazing core with world class players like RVP and Fabregas, Ramsey, Koscienly that he identified for almost no money. The problem was simply a lack of transfer funds for a good bench. Look af Guardiola and even Arteta now. They buy players for £100 million for the bench. There is never a weak length in the team and when a key player goes down with injury there is an adeauate back up. Wenger was an absolute genius during this time. I sincrrely believe we were much closer than people realised and with just slightly more money - we wouldnt have lost Ashley Cole and we would have had just enough depth overall to allow the world class players like Fabregas to carry us to a title or two. Either way, Wengers achievements during this time actually amazing and are conpletely underated and distored. He could not have dine any better

There were many issues and while not solely to blame, Wenger certainly contributed to them. Tactically we struggled but in reality it came down to wasting money as much as anything. At a time when we needed to be incredibly vigilant with funds we paid way too much to average players and not enough to our best. Our top players didn't just leave because we wanted to sell them, they weren't paid their market value and forced moves away. Our wagebill was almost always high (at least fourth highest from what I remember) so it wasn't the total it was the allocation and Wenger was quoted as saying he wanted a more socialist wage structure. That is how things should be in the general work force in order for everyone to be able to afford a decent quality of life however it doesn't make sense in top flight football. A bang average squad player on £10k a week is still laughing all the way to the bank, you don't need to pay them £50k a week because someone else is getting £100k. We also signed some absolute dross and to make matters worse we paid them huge wages that meant we couldn't move them on easily: Henrikh Mkhitaryan Shkodran Mustafi Granit Xhaka Lucas Pérez Carl Jenkinson Danny Welbeck Gervinho Etc etc The list could go on go and that's without including players who weren't absolutely terrible, just mediocre. Wenger's biggest strength was finding talent and instilling belief in them. Towards the end it became his biggest weakness. Wenger was an absolutely brilliant manager, a true Arsenal legend but in the end his time was very much up.

As an arsenal fan that went through the agony and joy of all those years, I think there's some valid points and some not so . Here's the main ppints I feel you missed - Getting a good goalkeeper - Wenger stuck with Almunia who wasn't good enough and then Fabianski while he could have been smart and gotten a Shay given or Joe Hart from the smaller clubs. I disagree with the move from Viera to Cesc. We also had players like Diaby who never really shone because of injuries. Critical injuries - Eduardo was a big injury during an important and probably one of the best seasons i've seen under Arsene. Keeping players like Denilson, Sanogo, Silvestre, Santos were big errors. Overall Wenger was and still is a legend but he had to go, and Arsenal are rebuilding. they aren't anyway in the dumbs. Finally I agree history will be kind to him for sure, but the decision to let him go when we did, I completely back.

you are absolutely right mate, about Patrick Viera being the MVP, even if Thierry Henry and Dennis Bergkamp were the eye candies. you were also absolutely spot on with the observation about Arsenal wanting a top four champions league finish, but did not have the ambition for more. I cannot comment on the quality of the players and the constraints in getting the most appropriate talent. But in the years that followed 2003-04 season, the defining feature of Arsenal's performance was that they no longer gave their 100% on the field they were so caught up in their artistry and overall were still so good that they wanted to prove this by playing only at 80%/ 70%/60% of their capacity and they could still best most teams. they progressively lost the physical toughness which Patrick Viera embodied. they were still good enough for most teams but against the top teams they got caught out. eventually falling over the cliff.

How many other managers would get top 4 with Chamakh, bendtner, Miguel and other mediocre players. In 2011 Arsenal had to sell clichy, fabregas and nasri who were integral players without having the necessary funds to replace them properly. It was a feat to keep us in the top 4, obviously the quality of the league was lower but it is also worth noting he held on 3-4 years too long which set us back 10 years.

A combination of things.The emergance of cash rich Chelsea,a squad that needed replacing due to their age, the financial burden of a new stadium and the emergance of a new breed of managers with new systems all conspired against him. But given those circumstances, what he achieved was remarkable,there were 16/17 teams in the league for all those 'down' years who would have happily traded league positions.what most people also seem to forget is Arsenes contribution not just to Arsenal but English football as a whole,even Sir Alex credited Arsene with bringing about fundamental changes in,health,diet,science etc. when he arrived. Im a sunday league fan so dont have a dog in this race but from a neutral point of view him and Sir Alex are the greatest managers the league has seen,not just for their coaching but for the dynasties they built. Modern fans are fickle,dreamers,short sighted,have even shorter memories,have little patience and demand instant success at any cost to their club,all while moaning how much a ticket costs. They dont understand that success and sustained success comes from stability.

Wenger didn’t have an eye for evolution, Plan B or most importantly, defence. In his time, Fergie bought Stam, Ferdinand, Vidic. Apart from Sol Campbell (on came in on a free) I can’t name one world class centre back he signed or developed. He didn’t need money to create attacking players, so why couldn’t he create a solid defence with the same resources? Create a team that was hard to crack. There was no trophy for pretty football at the end of the season. It was same old, same old for years and Arsenal just got found out
