    Wenger’s talent ID deserves a lot of praise. Often bought players on a shoestring budget in comparison with United, Chelsea and later on even City, and developed those players into brilliant prospectives. Even Sir Alex said in his autobiography that Arsenal under Arsene had a really good knack for developing players from all over Europe.

      True, and being the first French coach in the EPL was a big advantage for him as well. He had a big rep in France and most french players wanted to play under him. It was also a golden generation of french players coming through at that time.

    I cannot tell you how much I loved abou diaby. Absolute powerhouse of a player. A complete players player. I spent so many years hoping he could overcome his injuries and was absolutely heartbroken when I read the news that he was finally leaving arsenal. I still remember reading it on my phone on my lunch break and exactly where I was at the time. Fantastic talent.

    He played in the champions league quarter final against us at Anfield 2nd leg and scored to put them ahead. They were all over us and I remember sitting in Anfield thinking these are too good especially with that Diaby running things…then he got injured and went off. After that the game changed for us, they didn’t look as dangerous at all. He was a great player.

    From a Liverpool fan, I think he Could have been Yaya-esque for Arsenal
    He killed us
    Post-Invincible era had some incredible players
    I liked Rosicky, Nasri, Cazorla, Song,
    Van Persie was a killer

    • @BeforeThisNovember

      It wasn’t just that era. In fact, I’d argue it’s only recently stopped - since about Arteta came and we now have the likes of Gabriel, Saliba and players who won’t tolerate such bonehead actions.
      Happened to many players, didn’t it - Ramsey and Wilshere just to name a couple.

    The team Arsene was trying to build post Invicibles is one of the greatest what could have beens in English football history like in the 07/08 season he was going against Fergies prime Man Utd with Cristiano and Chelsea both teams who made it to the Champions League final that season and he built that team with little to no money, everything was going so well until Eduardo got his foot almost broken off.

    @Gunner1302 5 днів тому +1

    I always said and will always argue he was more talented than Yaya. I can't think of anything Yaya did that Diaby couldn't do. Diaby was also a more technical finisher not just long range and also had more gas in the tank and defended better. He is one of the players i still feel bad we never got to see longer. I miss Eduardo too, what could've been. Teams would always target us and kick us around and play rough to stop us from being dominant
