Wenger has survived the slurs to become one of the most successful football managers in Britain, he has seven FA Cup titles to his name, three Premier League titles and a Champions League final to his name whilst manager of Arsenal.
But still, as clockwork, a continuous list of world class footballers are retrospectively linked to Arsenal in the media, long after Wenger’s retirement as manager in 2017.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic famously rejected a trial, Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi came close as youngsters whilst Gerard Pique could have followed Cesc Fabregas to Highbury. Liverpool famously rejected a £40m + £1 offer for Luis Suarez whilst a glut of superstars from Kylian Mbappe to Jadon Sancho have all been seriously linked to the Highbury / Emirates club.

Would Arsenal have dominated English football?
