Wenger legacy for me is very ambiguous because his real rise and fall coincides with David Dein, as soon as Dein was gone Wenger struggled so was Dein really the one who should be praised not Wenger? I also wonder why no one has criticized the lack of world class Arsenal youth products given how long Wenger was there and the fact that Arsenal are in London and have an enormous catchment of youth, also when the new crop of young French stars was coming through why wasn’t he in on the ground floor? Pogba joined Utd academy instead of his, Mbappe looked at Chelsea instead of his ect. I am just really surprised no one really critiques his Arsenal tenure properly.

@k.more1995 4 года назад

Wenger is the best thing that happened to Arsenal

@PeterSenderos 4 года назад

The relationship actually reminds me a bit more of Clough and Taylor except Wenger had the eye but Dein knew how to manage him and push deals through. Arsenal started to slide after the invincibles, it's true, but they were very unlucky in 2008. To me, the Eduardo injury was the real turning point for arsenal as they were well on course for the title that year (which is crazy when you look at utd's squad that season, but quite true). They had an excellent side centred around fabregas and could have built on it had they won the league, but they all started leaving after that and seemed unable to properly replace the ones that left (and that was well after Dein).

@ralisson4156 4 года назад

Both should be given praise during the early years and it was just a partnership that worked in harmony, bit like shearer and sutton for blackburn in the 90s. When Dein went it was just Wenger operating with the new board and backroom staff but he was trained to be a businessman so was very careful in deals. He didn't do badly for the first part of Emirates era as he had his hands tied behind his back and once the debt for the Emirates was paid off, he didn't adapt but it was because he was trained to be a businessman over a long period of time. The problem was that the new board were stingy and were also incompetent so they allowed players to run down their contracts and pretty much lost control of the club so Wenger carried on in a businessman like fashion. As for the youth, he did give a lot of chances for youth such as 2007 league cup and had strong youth prospects coming through which were used throughout his tenure.. Problem is transitioning from youth team to first team is a massive step up and lots of potential doesn't necessarily mean that players will be world class, hence why a lot of top youth prospects fail at big clubs. Look at Ravel Morrison or Ballotelli. Pogba grew at Juventus not United, and there haven't been many prospects recently that have started at top clubs and have become world class. Youth finding is mainly due to scouts but they can only scout players with potential, they can't just scout world class players so I don't think you can really blame Wenger in that regard.

The Suarez bid is infamous due to the media spinning the narrative. Arsenal's understanding of the issue is broken down into 2 parts. 1) Wenger has come out and said that Suarez wanted to join Arsenal. 2) Bids over 40mil meant that Liverpool merely had to inform Suarez that another club was interested. This is to formally open proceedings. Liverpool's reaction? 1) What are they smoking over there? 2) Stevie G knowing that Suarez was his only hope of actually winning an EPL title. So, he practically begged Suarez to stay. Didn't work out in the end lol. Liverpool's REAL reaction 1) 40mil was the real release clause. Liverpool just refused to sell. Just go google it.

If someone compiled a starting XI of all the players Arsenal had the opportunity to sign they'd have a pretty intimidating team. In the front line they'd have had Luis Suarez, Ruud van nistlerooy and cristiano CRYNALDOOOOOO for their forward line

@claptonandchill4367 4 года назад

Arsenal are the worst negotiators in football. The dudek transfer showed how it was at first. Clubs high balling us then selling for less then it became simply being to stingy and too slow, while also making poor signings

@jakethewoz 4 года назад

It's hilarious that Mourniho wouldn't let go of Ba, considering Arsenal gladly let go of RvP and Giroud to rival clubs. Their transfers are so pathetic... They sold Giroud and bought Luiz from Chelsea, and yet they couldn't get Demba Ba?! Good lord. Also, how can you make this video without talking about Cristiano and Zlatan?!

Lemar I understand fear of moving to arsenal but surely Athletico was a career killing move. That team is super defensive and that's why someone like Joao Felix is struggling.

My heart bleeds for Arsenal.....Imagine supporting a club which has nearly gone out of business or are that lowest point in their existence. Everyone is linked with players over the years. Look at my team Sunderland linked with Luis Suarez before he signed for Liverpool. Van nistolroy was going to sign under Reidy but injuries and timing stopped that happening. Even back in the 80s Argentinian newspaper were saying that Maradona was wanting to sign for sunderland. We ended up with Marangoni who after leaving us went on too win the coppa libertadores

@hanklesacks 4 года назад

I always questioned why tf the club did not buy in higuain in 2013, turns out it was gross incompetence from a clown who had probably never kicked a ball in his life. Hazard was also keen on coming here before lille won a league title, the less anyone talks about that, the better.

Wenger's transfer blunders are well documented, but two stand out the most. Wenger passed on Zlatan Ibrahimovic, because he never made a serious offer for the Swede and instead he offered him a tryout which led to one of the most famous quotes: "Zlatan doesn't do auditions". And if passing on Ibrahimovic was bad enough then this is even worse - passing on a 17/18-year old boy from Funchal on the island of Madeira, Portugal, who was playing for Sporting Club de Portugal at the time. You might have heard of him - his name is Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro or simply Cristiano Ronaldo. Months after Wenger passed on him (because years prior they've signed another Portuguese hot prospect which floped), Ronaldo joined Manchester United and the rest is history, while Arsenal missed the opportunity assemble a dynasty.

Why don’t they ask the price first. Seems like most of their deals fall through because they do everything backwards - agreeing personal terms, and then negotiating with the selling club. Surely you’d get an idea Of what the selling club want, before you sit down with the player.

@yogendrathapa1052 4 года назад
