@@kiranp5611 Exactly! I hate how some fools just blame Wenger for everything as if he was provided the tools to succeed and didn't use them. He overachieved under the Kroenkes!
He is the father of the modern premier league. Revolutionised coaching both on and off the field. Every league team has followed suit since. Without him setting a precedent, the PL wouldn't be what it is now. Wenger doesn't get enough credit in the public eye. The Steve Jobs of football.
The statue is actually in making. Arsene and the club were just going through some after divorce time lets say :) not easy for both sides to start new chapter
It's fair to say the older players Bergkamp, Henry, Vieira respected Wenger to the max that they would obey by his rules. Remember in Wenger's final year at Arsenal, Alex Iwobi was at a party 24 hours before a game.. This generation of players just didn't appreciate him enough
It is also safe to say that Arsene had become a granddad by the end of his reign to the boys hence players like Iwobi having the audacity to break the rules. You know, a strict father usually becomes a puppy to his grandchildren.
This was level of dedication and companionship that made Invincibles. A boss who knows what he was doing and a group hungry talented players who were ready to follow him keeping their own interests aside.
Damn... that story about Bergkamp and the teabags is amazing. I don't care for Arsenal in the slightest, but the expectations and accountability they had was a huge reason why they were able to get so stuck in when it came time to play Man United and Newcastle in the mid 90s up to the early 00s. Incredible.
This is a perfect example of how people change over even immediate generations. On one hand there's Ian, Bergkamp and their take on the nutrition regime planned by Wenger. Although Ian plays a "disobedient prat" against Wenger's disciplinary actions, at the end of the day, he believes all of this ultimately makes the team better. On the other hand, you apply the same disciplinary nutrition regime to the current crop of players, they become rebellious, throw tantrums and compromise their performance just to oust him altogether. Player Power have made legendary clubs like Arsenal, United and Chelsea falter to the point where they struggle for getting first 4 of the table. Managers who found a way to adjust to that change of mentality and still provide some degree of discipline to players have excelled to lead nowadays: Pep and Klopp are such kind of managers.
Well they've played two champions league finals and won one, that alone puts them above many. Being ancient does not necessarily equal being a big club.
Yes, player power like at Chelsea, and Utd when under Mourinho.. However, don't forget that this is not a new phenomena, it happened to Clough at Leeds too, back in the 70's. A manager needs to earn the respect first like in any working environment. It probably doesn't help if you go into a team that has a high pedigree already or has won trophies recently and then try to alter everything at once.
Dear Mr. Ian Wright, apologies for putting this message here, I just want to say how sorry I am that you suffer abuse . I get the impression it must hurt , yet you put on a brave face. I do not like that you and others suffer this injustice, I hope and pray the abusers are educated and mature there outlook . All the best
Imagine thinking DENNIS BERGKAMP would be on Mikel Arteta’s coaching team. It’d be the other way around, mate. Even Freddie didn’t hang around to be a part of Arteta’s team. They’re not on the same level at Arsenal Football Club
We had a Drill Instructor that stated his Unit The Renegades, were not allowed deserts or soda. Soooo we didn't touch it. Until someone complained like a child to the Command. Command gave a notice, our DI read it out. But he said, I said "Renegades" are not allowed. Never said you weren't. So we all went down later for chow and after 8 weeks of no Soda or Sugar....we all walked past it. We won best Drill Instructor at Graduation. We didn't win anything else, because a few of our team mates acted like children. They failed to get in the Military thank god. Lol, he has a good friend.
As silly as it seems things like this with English Football player mentality are why it took us so long to get back to being close to winning a Big Tournament at international level after Euro 96, because other teams and other players had the right attirude towards health and fitness and disciple and being professional naturally so achieved great things at domestic and international level. Whereas we probably had some players who did it naturally anyway and got what manager's and staff were trying to do, but too many overgrown school boys who were trying to find loopholes (and thinking it was funny bending/defying the rules cause it gave them a story to tell) knocking around. Took another 15-20 years of coming short even with great players in the squad for the penny to drop and for us to get the message at last!
Hey Gunners fans, remember a few years ago when you lot had your “Wenger Out” banners, AFTV rants and grown men screaming at their TVs about how Arsene ruined their club? Because I remember how you treated one of the greatest managers in Football history.
Wenger's time was up, for he had failed to adapt to the evolving football climate which is ironic as he was so revolutionary when he joined the team. Football had changed so much during his 23 years and it was time for a change. Emery wasn't the answer, but here's hoping Arteta is.
@@erdembayrak4449 idk. it seemed like things got worse when they tried to force him to change. the season Leicester won arsenal were on the brink, if not for cazrola's injury they might've won it. the level of consistency he achieved cannot be understated. look at the teams now, can you honestly say that any of them will finish top 4 for the next 20 years?
Certain man think they can disrespect wenger and they think they know more about football than him! us as fans, only see the games, the coach knows each player, how they train, their motivations and vices
No wonder Arsene still regrets not getting the GOAT back then! Because who could better follow his dietary restriction than CR7! I think CR7 with arsenal back then would win a lot more than he did with saf and utd
Graham an Arsenal fan or something?? I know he had Beckham on and Hamilton as well but he doesn't generally do sportspeople. Now he's had two Arsenal legends on in the space of a few months 😂
It would have been fun, if a full form arsene Wenger managed arsenal right now. One can do all the agenda he wants, in Wengers sunset days the most one can joke about, is that no 4 position is for arsenal. 3 yrs he's been gone, for once arsenal didn't look like theyll finish in top 4.
Arsene Wenger's contribution to Arsenal's history cannot be overstated. He is Arsenal on two feet! A real football legend.
Not just ARSEnal but the whole Premier league and down. Other teams started doing things differently after hearing what Wenger was doing.
Had it not been Kroenkes, we would have things very differently, we would have been what Liverpool is now.
@@kiranp5611 Exactly! I hate how some fools just blame Wenger for everything as if he was provided the tools to succeed and didn't use them. He overachieved under the Kroenkes!

Never mind the statue, the stadium should be named after him.

They can't put a statue outside the Emirates because tools like DT would tear it down
Wenger really told an English man with Jamaican heritage that he can't have tea or seasoning. Good lord
The impertinence of the man.

Bergkamp was a professional thru and thru. He had no issues following orders by the boss esp when it aligns with his goals.
that's why Bergkamp is Bergkamp and Iwobi is Iwobi now (even though he was very talented)
Dennis then rolls up a fat one..."The boss never said anything about the Bob Marley now did he"???
Absolutely love Ian, what a great footballer but an even better Man! He's got a heart of gold, god bless him!
"I feel like chicken tonight, like chicken tonight".

One of the greatest managers of all time. Liverpool fan.
It would be hilarious if Arsene came in and Ian got annoyed with the diet and was like
"I cant wait for this guy to leave , cant take that long"😂
Wrighty is an absolute legend - I used to love watching him and Bergkamp and Henry at Highbury when they were on fire for Arsenal. Big love.

Graham Norton is the best. He asks the question and then shuts up for the guest to answer. That’s a man who’s comfortable in his own skin.

Arsenal Wenger the man who changed English football...he raised the standard and others had to follow.
Bergkamp had a schmoke and a pancake instead
Snuck in some teabgs 😆😆😆
Wrighty needed that cheeky Earl Gray
It's always good to hear from a legend
When I was child , I always taught Arsene Wenger is owner of Arsenal
Exactly I used to think arsenal was named after arsene
He might as well have been during the peak of his heyday.
Thanks for posting.

Not the food that made them successful, it was the mindset. "Listen to me and we will succeed"
This proves Micheal McIntyre observation true about football: everything is at the end of the day

Mercy wengèr .. the man the myth the legend ...arsenal fans will forever regret loosing him.. Grass is not always green in other side
Respect to dennis greatest player I've seen
we need to bring Dennis the 'non flying dutchman' Bergkamp back to the club as part of Arteta's coaching team..
Imagine thinking DENNIS BERGKAMP would be on Mikel Arteta’s coaching team. It’d be the other way around, mate. Even Freddie didn’t hang around to be a part of Arteta’s team. They’re not on the same level at Arsenal Football Club
I really REALLY RESPECT YOU and wish you were a REAL part of OUR club
Ok having a strict diet with food and water is understandable but as soon as he said they weren't allowed tea, that would have been the final straw 😉

From 2007 onwards he must have let the team drink tea.
