Had no financial backing, no oil money, was criticized for getting top 4 for 20 years without fail. Had to sell his best players to fund the Stadium. When on top, Arsenal were the most beautiful team to watch. One Arsene Wenger. He revolutionized the game and is faithful to Arsenal even after retirement. RESPECT.
If he's good as lot of Arsenal fans are saying, then why no top team considered taking Wenger on, after he left??? Because anyone with a brain knows, Wenger is the most overrated manager ever, he fluked his way to the invincible title and did nothing after that. Failure.......
@@JohnAbraham-ft5go he literally said in the interview he rejected all offers cos he's working with fifa
@@JohnAbraham-ft5go if u think wenger is overrated choose another sport
Got top 4 without fail but failed every one of those years in Europe. Only won the league when the prem had Fergie at Utd once other world class managers came he never finished higher then 4th so 16years of failure with only fa cups to show for it. Maybe he never had the most money but still managed to spend 42 m on Ozil, 55m on Laca and 60m on Auba.
@@JohnAbraham-ft5go how the hell was the invincibles a fluke?
Forget football. Wenger is a special man. The way he talks, the things he says, the way he carries himself. Such a class act. Arsenal will be grateful forever. Thank you Arsene.
Jose was right about him, Wenger is specialist in failure. Over 20 years in the Champions League and just 1 final and 0 Champions League titles.........
Arsenal fans are as grateful as a hyena. They tormented and abused him till he had to walk. Shameless fan base
@@GhostJJJ nah dont say all of us.This John Abraham is a 6 year old on his mom's phone
either that or he is not taking his scizophrenia pills lately
@@JohnAbraham-ft5go Pretty sure its to do with resources more than anything. Wenger was over achieving with what he was given. If he was Barcelona manager for the same period he would have a few.
@@ChrisMisc1 Leicester won the League, how are you using excuses like that
Could listen to Arsene Wenger for hours
U should get his audio book.. It's good 👍
@@ozzking2006 narrated by himself?
That moment where he and mourinho were both pundits together was terribly underrated
@@brandonayong5823 , those segments are absolutely awesome. Priceless combo.
If u do it since you were born then u will probably ended up stucked in 4th grade
The fact that he uses 'WE' when he talks about Arsenal is wholesome❤️
Something mouriniho dosent do
@@alim3100 Jose wins European trophies. Something Wenger doesn’t do.
@@GhostJJJ fair enough
Only wenger and Alex Fergusan can say we when it comes to club in terms of big names etc
@@GhostJJJ If he moves to a new team, he will. He will make PSG CL champs
Am I the only one who thought Arsenal was named after “Arsene” Wenger as a kid 😂
You not alone. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I thought he had shares too
Man, same here. i also thought Man City was named after R. Mancini.
No I used to think that
@@ynat957 no you didn't unless you're a little virgin unaware of Man City's small history 🙄😂
What he did, after we moved to Emirates to consistently get us top 4 and getting the best out of players who would be deemed bang average in any other team, is remarkable. He had limited resources bc we paid a fortune, especially at that time, for the Emirates stadium, and we had to sell our best players to repay the debt generated from that every year.
Yes, his final two seasons were not amazing, he may have stayed around for too long, but even then he did leave us much better financially than when we moved in to the Emirates. Arsenal were in need of a change... but, it goes without saying, this man is our best manager in history, all Arsenal fans like me love him for what he's done for our club and deserves a statue
There’s only one Arsène Wenger 🙌🏼🔴⚪️
Most overrated manager I have ever seen. He won 3 League titles and 0 Champions League over 20 years..........
@@JohnAbraham-ft5go This guy completely changed English football as we know it. He is the biggest influence on football, after Sir Alex, admittedly. But the point is he's not overrated. There is a reason why he is praised so much. Because he did not have the resources, and even the full backing that Sir Alex had. He's worked miracles with the resources he's had. Oh, he's also got a better win percentage at Arsenal than Sir Alex at Man United and won more FA cups. Keep crying.
It’s the Arsenal’s owner fault. Not wenger, not even emery,
It’s all kroenke. And i dunno why Gunners fans keeps blaming it to the manager
@kanbar82 Arsenal were in massive debt after buying Emirates. They had to make profits every transfer window by selling the best players, and replacing them with cheaper options. Even with that, he still got us top 4. As far as Leicester are concerned, they hit the jackpot and committed daylight robbery selling a fridge for 80 mill to Man United and an average English left back for 50 mill. And Klopp got the backing Wenger never had
@@luisdc07 exactly. He had to deal with cheaper players in order to keep us better financially, so he wasn't fully backed either. He loves arsenal as much as us Arsenal fans do
*There’s only one Arsene Wenger*
finally they upload this video, the interview was done awhile ago
Yeah. Only a manager that wins 3 titles in 22 years and get endless praise. Klopp done more for Liverpool in 5 years than Arsene in 20.
@@yadadoo20 We are living in your head... RENT FREE!!!
@@yadadoo20 Wenger completely changed how we view English football as well you moron. Biggest influence in English football after Sir Alex, no cap. Keep crying
Overrated manager. 3 League titles and 0 Champions League for over 20 years. For a club like Arsenal he's a legend, since Arsenal not a big club.......
I can see Arsene loves Ozil the way he's excited wishing him a happy birthday
Footballing genius.....
His not just a football coach but also a great father off the pitch
United fan but got to admit Wenger was a legend
Not even top 5 best managers in the Premier League, yet he's considered as a legend. Jose, Ferguson, Ancelotti, Klopp and Pep are all better............
@@JohnAbraham-ft5go ancelotti wise up 🤣🤣 and pep is always giving money at the clubs he is at 👏👏
@@JohnAbraham-ft5go stfu it's clear that the order is this
1. Sir Alex ferguson
2. Jose mourinho
3. Arsene wenger
4. Jurgen klopp
5. Pep guardiola
6. Mauricio pochentino

It's because they show the current situation Özil is in
@@pieterputs9000 aw right makes sense now lol
😂😂😂 how biased this media? It sucks
No matter he is now under turkish people wings and he is going to be on top again
Arsenal fans will sing 49 undefeated forever thanks to Arsene Wenger. He won you three leagues in 8 years while you only won three leagues in 44 years before him! Two doubles of which you only ever had one and invincibility that only he achieved in history! He won more FA Cups in his time than Arsenal won in a hundred years before him. And he really overachieved under Kroenke. Some of those squads should've been midtable and he got them Champions League football! He's by far the biggest Arsenal legend ever and some "Arsenal fans" need to stop being ungrateful.
He won three league titles in 22 years.
What on earth are you on about? Who are these ungrateful Arsenal fans you're talking about? Wenger's himself has admitted that he probably stayed on a little longer than he should have. Aknowledging the fact doesn't make somebody ungrateful. I challenge you to find even a single fan that doesn't respect Wenger's legacy.
@@juuglord8509 A lot of Arsenal fans showed him lots of disrespect. They try to take his achievements away from him and they fully blame him for every single bad thing that happens on Earth. They keep saying he won a double in his first full season only because of Graham's back five despite that back five finishing 12th before he came! When Emery came and got lucky in a match they kept saying "we would've lost under Wenger, we had no spine under Wenger" etc. They act as if everything he did after 2006 was bad. They give him credit for nothing and disrespect him at every chance. I'm not saying all Arsenal fans are ungrateful, but too many of them are and you can't deny it. Criticism is allowed because we all make mistakes but he got a lot of disrespect by "Arsenal fans".
Arsenal fans living in the past......
@@alaooooy7 The few arsenal fans that showed the gaffer disrespect was because he had stayed longer than he should of, if he had left earlier we might have gotten Klopp or Guardiola as our managers - proven in the prem to win titles. We all recognise that he was the best manage that our club has had but because he stayed for so long we missed out on managers that might have won us more than a fa cup.
he needs a statue now
Statute for winning 0 Champions League titles and, finishing 4th in the League, since Arsenal moved to the Emirates........
@@JohnAbraham-ft5go 6-1
Arsenal fan and no he doesn't!
He already has one its just inside.
@@debo2189 he has the joint 2nd most premier league titles ffs that should be enough for one
If Wenger had the amount of money Pep had to spend on players, he would of won everything. He dragged absolute trash to 4th place numerous times. He changed Football 👏🏽
He actually spent lot of money in his management career, after moving to the Emirates. That's a myth, he never had money to spend..........
He used small amount of money but still get trophies, that’s what makes him such special
@@JohnAbraham-ft5go wtf you talking about??
Once he was faced with more then one elite manager like a Jose, Rafa, Carlo, pep or Klopp he never finished higher then 4th and got his cheeks spilt on a regular in Europe.
John Abraham Only time he spent big sums of money was when the fans got onto Kroenke for not backing the club. And that was at the end of his managerial career which meant nothing cos Fans were pushing him to resign anyway. He’d literally have that one signing during the whole transfer window. Compared to Pep’s and Chelsea’s spending in one transfer window, it’s nothing.
Love how he Still calls Arsenal “we” 😌Once a Gunner..Always a Gunner
Arsenal forever
Same thought
Shame you guys hounded him out
Forget running my football club, I reckon if half of the politicians that run our country had half the intelligence and integrity of Arsène, we'd be in a better world. A truly legendary man. Arsenal and football miss him every day.
Absolutely right! 👏🏼👍🏼
Ahh the classic "well.. i think errrr"
Once a GUNNER, always a GUNNER!
Watched the clip 3 times; just can't get tired of the way he talks, his demeanor, the way he cuts in abruptly to answer qs before the interviewer cud finish asking qs, his description of Ozil and general life perceptions.
Sometimes, I feel some stained tears welling up my eyes
He's just an absolutely wonderful man
And father like for players
The classiest man in football. He changed the EPL forever for the better.
“Will you ever coach again in the Premier League?”
“My life is linked with Arsenal”
Once a gunner always a gunner ❤️
united fan here and this guy holds my rspect. He's like closest to a Fergie with his longevity and doing so much for a club. Big respect for playing great football and giving us our most fearce challenge.
From a Man u fan. Amazing manager when you truly understand his full situation at arsenal then you can truly appreciate his achievements him and fergie Will never be rivaled again
Agreed. Such an iconic rivalry. And both respected each other. Unlike that prick jose
Yes, to truly appreciate just how impressive it was for him to consistently finish top 4, you have to understand the situation behind the scenes at Arsenal. He managed to get bang average players into the Champions League year after year by recruiting well in certain areas while selling his top players.
I am convinced that had Arsenal *not* moved to the Emirates and taken on that financial restraint, he would have won a lot more Premier League titles than he did.
The fact that we got criticised for getting top 4 every season really shows just how good he was as a manager. What a man.
"Time is the best doctor" A man of much wisdom.
"Time is a good doktor."
Lol
Leave him alone 😭😭
@@cold_servo_pie Well, born very close to the border 😉
That will be an iconic quote tho
@Steveo Mc Deevo
I’m going to sound so pretentious here, but I’ve read that even though Wenger was born in Alsace in France, he was brought up speaking a variation of Alemannic, a dialect of German.
He is the Prof. Genius :) he makes people understand humanity and empathy in football. It's become social media abuse and money nowadays.
When he speaks about Arsenal, he refers to them as "we", you can clearly tell how this man loved and still loves this club. Thank you Arsene.A man of principle and a man who believed in his course. Always good to see him.
He is class personified to the ultimate level. He respects and loves all peoples in general .what a gem of a guy !
When i was young I thought hmmm arsenal has manager named Arsene so the club named itself after him 😂😂 . Huge respect to this gentleman 🙏.
Me too😂😂😂
Same bro 😂😂😂😂 but yh huge respect to Arsene Wenger.
Same 😂
Arsene’s Arsenal 💯
Lol 😂😂😂 me too
kinda want him to manage PSG or Munchen tho, he deserves a final run in a top, top team
He deserves a board that will back him.if he was backed like Ferguson then God knows how many prems he would have won
@@bigbrain8614 facts
Just like Jose, he's finished at top level. His tactics and football is outdated........
@@JohnAbraham-ft5go seriously... football tactics are never outdated.....tikitaka at man City is the perfect example.... ajax, Barcelona now city
@@User10111 I didn't want to mention something which makes me want to break my tv
Arsene clearly said Ozil not playing has nothing to do with football
Top man special manager up there with fergie from a united fan. Tactically fantastic recruited well. Miss the man in the english league
Arsene can make a very good lecturer. In whatever course.
He's by far the greatest man in Arsenal's history! It's shameful that some "Arsenal fans" treat him as if they were winning six titles every year and he came in and got them relegated to Football League 2!
@RLM go and win some trophies before talking about barca fans and arsenal fans
@@bigbrain8614 what does have to do with what they said lol , and im a chelsea fan
@RLM and he's more successful than your club, wasn't it you that were celebrating a draw with palace to clinch Europa league football 😂😂
chapman eviscerates him
The majority of our fan base is awful, however, the same can be said about any group of a similar size.
Thank you for everything Arsene
As a neutral premier league fan I always liked watching arsenal under wenger the way he sees passing the ball into the net is so good to watch when it works
He always demanded entertaining football because thats what people want to see
It was under his watchful eyes that what has now become known as "playing the Arsenal way" was developed. This man was a trail blazer. If only Arsenal fans were a little more understanding we may have done much better than the record shows.
@@drealskero a little more understanding from the fans? Care ti explain about that?
Why don’t you have a team?
@@phoenix-king779 ?
Absolute legend I agree with his views on Ozil we need to play him
Uses to hate this man being a united fan but I’ve grown to like him since he’s gone. Mad!
Lol
Massive Respect from a lfc fan. No respect for arsenal fans. Far as im concerned arsenal fans hate football
Still whenever Arsenal comes into conversation, man addresses as "We".
If this is not class, then I dont know what is!
An unbelievable manager and football person. He deserved so much more respect when he was at the end of his tenure at Arsenal. Not many men left in football like Wenger anymore.
What a man. The end did get a bit rough, but what he said was perfect. He gave everything he could for us and thats all we could ask for. That speech on his final game still gets me man. What a legend, thanks for the amazing memories Arsene.
I'm a United fan, but also a football fan in general. Most of all, though, I'm a legend fan. Arsene Wenger is something else.
I wish Arsene was younger. I would love to see him managing again. He’s amazing.
Forever COYG⚽️
He gave his life to the club :'(
I cannot thank this man enough, he's given me so many happy memories which I will never see you again .thank you .Mr Arsenal
Thank you for everything you gave to football and humanity in general, Mr. Arséne!
Miss this guy
I love that at the age of seventy he still talks about what he going to do in future, 'I'm not ready yet' etc. Like for him even at seventy as far as he's concerned the adventure goes on.
Being a Man U fan, I love wenger and arsenal, the way the club works is amazing and I try to hide my love for the club but people call me plastic, I always hope Arsenal get into the champions league and have more success, love from a man united fan
Thanks mate, unfortunately big money owners have changed the way football is played and managed.
@@moosa9850 Ik mate these are hard times we in the same position
@@gsrdeluxe2545 As fans, we gonna have to bite the proverbial bullet.
Rivalry in football should be a bit of banter,Real football people can appreciate great players and clubs no matter what their called except spurs .🤩⚽️
I love this man! Wouldn't mind him at some arsenal role
His ‘overall’ is iconic
This man made me watch football! Merci Arsene ❤️❤️ such a class left the club with fans against him, still loves and respectful of club fans and everyone. Unlike some manager cuss the previous clubs. You don't get this type of people often 👌👌
First thing that comes to mind when someone says ‘football’ is this boss right here!
Remember when Arsenal fans were saying 'top 4 isn't enough, the quarter-finals of Champions League isn't enough'.
Since that, they've been begging to get anywhere close to it. AFTV got this man sacked so they could make money from his downfall, make no mistake about it.
AFTV or not, he had a part in the downfall.
Yea sure, let’s blame AFTV who has nothing to do with the club, moron!
@@ikay87 but has a lot to do with the fans
I bet kroenke and the arsenal hierarchy turn to aftv for their decisions, I guess we can also credit aftv for hiring Arteta and edu and signing all these new players...
Only a fool would blame a section of the fanbase for results on the pitch or decisions made by the club. Arsenal not getting top 4 started with Wenger he came 5th ans 6th in his last two seasons. The same group of average players are *still* at the club because he and the old hierarchy put them on high wages and wont leave until theie contracts are finished. AFTV is a by-product of the results on the pitch *not the cause of it* .
He was disrespected too Much at the end Arsenal fans didn't appreciate him enough instead they basically forced him out of the door
He's the reason for that! If you're not good enough, you should have self respect and resign. He lost the league to Leicester! And he was one of the highest paid managers in the world. We were finishing lower and lower. So yes, he should've resigned but his last days, he put himself above Arsenal's best interest
@@debo2189 finally, someone who speaks some sense.
Another Wenger apologist, respect where it’s due for what he’s done in the past and I repeat past. But our record away at the big 6 over the years is diabolical especially under him. 8-2, 6-0, 4-0, 6-3, 6-1 need I go on? It’s professional not personal. We will always love Wenger but sentiment doesn’t win anything.
@@rkolew8466 Arsenal fans really forgot the true status of our club where winning the league and competing for CL was a goal and anything else was considered a failure. Now top 4 and FA cups make a manager legendary! Yes it could be the case for Stoke City (with all respect) or Fulham but not Arsenal FC
@@debo2189 since when did winning an fa cup makes you a legend. Especially when wenger won it more times than liverpool. It just shows you how far wenger has dropped the standards.
Tottenham fan here - huge respect to the guy. He’s a legend and a gentleman.
People like sir Alex and wenger are once in a lifetime. Amazing achievement that changed the shape of football. From a man utd fan
I love how when he speaks about Arsenal he says WE
It will forever be “ARSENE WENGERS RED ARMY!!!”
Forget how he left. He will be remembered as an Arsenal legend. We were lucky to have such a manager for 20+ years
Not even an Arsenal fan and I miss having this guy around. He's always fascinating to listen to.
The way arsene turns around at the start of the interview as if she teleported into his garden and took him by surprise but he just answers the questions anyway
Arsene needs to wait for the France job to come up, and lead his country in the World Cup Finals. That would be special :)
Looking for this comment
Every Arsenal fan loves Wenger. His loyalty to the club cannot be questioned. The sour ending would have not happened had he been more transparent with the fans and not protected the American owners the extent he did. Period!
You can feel the love he has for Arsenal through the screen. Merci Arsene...
Him in his prime with prime Ferguson and prime mourinho are arguably the three best ever managers to ever exist
In the premier league era maybe, but not the all time era of football. Well maybe only Sir Alex out of that three will make it to the nomination of the all time best manager in football.
@@nmlsslbrty maybe a bit to harsh on wenger
Reporter: "How should supporters remember you?"
Wenger: "I believe I was loyal, committed, worked with integrity, and only thought about what is good for the club"
What a wholesome answer, such humility. Massive respect
We love you Arsene! Thank you for all you did for our club and for football! You truly are a class act and a legend!
What a class act! Absolute legend! He stayed too long (should have left after the 2014 FA cup victory or 2017 at latest), but he is also Arsenal's greatest manager, who changed Arsenal and English football for the better. Hope we see him back at the stadium soon.
His class, stature, grace and respect is something that Mourinho can never obtain.
The fact that he made a team in 50M is incredulous! If Arsenal had money like United at that time then they could have won the cl.
Such a classy respectful guy and the fact he still says we when talking about Arsenal shows how much Arsenal mean to him.
He's such an Arsenal man, you can tell the club is still in his heart.

As 6 year old kid in '98 you made me fall in love with football and the Arsenal. Gunner for life.

This man loved Arsenal more than his wife, arsenal fans were disgraceful toward the end of his time
So true! I'm actually disgusted that I actually call myself a Gunner when we have such unappreciating fans!
Chelsea fans allowing people on trains yet?
We were not. We were nice given the levels of stress we were under during his last years.
So did Claude
His time ran out, he didn’t evolve with the time probably not him to blame, Chelsea, Mancity, Utd all outspent and literally bought the title ...Wenger Thanks for the Memories
Legend💪🏼
wenger is an absolute arsenal legend 7 fa cups and 3 premier league titles certainly wont be forgotten hes the reason i started supporting arsenal he changed us on and off the pitch for the better gave his life for the club . its sad the way it ended in the final couple of years but that wont reflect what he done in the previous 20 .
as an arsenal fan, i always loved this guy..things got out of hand at the end but so far he is the greatest manager we v had
Our class went out with him, miss this guy he would'nt have taken part in Arsenal's politics ever!!

This man made me LOVE football! What a Genius.. THANK YOU ARSENE 🙏🏿
Propaply the best manager ever in the premier league not only for what he won but also with a lot less money than the other big teams. Also Arsenal played the most amazing football. And the icing on the cake unbeaten for a whole season. And build a stadium as well. We will never see his like again.
