Wenger could have ended up with a trophy haul like Pep, Morinho or Sir Alex only if he was financially backed like those clubs owners. Even when he did spend it was mostly to compensate for players who left so he always had a weaker team. It’s sad many footballing pundits and fans don’t recognise this and ultimately got him sacked.
Similiar thing is happening with Klopp. I suspect people in the future won’t understand or respect the genius of Klopp these last few years just like some don’t respect the genius of Wenger back then. Both competed against titans (the 2 Manchester clubs) with far bigger budgets
@Garlic Bread you have to consider the inflation of the market Wenger had some bigger money singings if u consider the prices at the time. In fact the sale of Anelka was somehwhat similiar to the sale of coutinho
@Garlic Bread wtf are u on about I never said shoe string budget I said they competed with less then their competitors
@Garlic Bread pepe and mustafi were desperate buys. His most expensive players were arshavin and santi till 2014
Great job take a a a happy company you'll find great deals a fantastic experience ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤fantastic win
People forget, but even before Kroenke we never spent big! Wenger brought Vieira and Anelka as two unknowns for little money and turned them to monsters. Vieira went on to be one of the biggest players in the clubs history and Anelka was sold for big money that he used to bring Thierry Henry and build the training ground! United always were spending much bigger that's why they got to highjack Ronaldo's deal and they always spent more overall yet Wenger got us competing and winning against them, we even won the league in their ground! Then little clubs like Chelsea and City took spending steps higher and we went even lower with the stadium debts and Kroenke coming! Yet Wenger still created great players like Van Persie, Cesc, Nasri, Sagna, Adebayor, Diaby, Theo, Clichy, Eduardo, Vela, Rosicky and many more yet they were either sold by our great board or cursed with endless injuries! Arsene Wenger overachieved throughout his time at Arsenal. He's one of the games greatest ever minds. I hope to see him managing a side with a great squad and a big budget soon. I know he's currently working on developing football with FIFA but it's still possible. We need to see more of his beautiful football and with a good enough squad he can conquer again!
The difference is that we kept our players, we had amazing players and it was more or less about developing for most of the teams. Only few were buying to make the team top team, like Real Madrid. Then we continued doing the same, we didn't adapt. Chelsea came and started buying players, we were in transition. Oh well.. now I read the 3rd and 4th roll of your comment :D :D :D
Chelsea were not little, they were not as big as arsenal and man utd, but already in the mix of top 4-6, and winning fa cup, league Cup, Cup winners Cup, and Super Cup beforehand ..it was about potential as well..
@@adolphsow607 They were like Wolves. A small club with a couple titles in the old days and some results here and there. Big money made them move forwards that's the point I was making. If Roman Abramovich bought Watford then Watford would be where Chelsea are.
@@alaooooy7 maybe..who knows? There's a chance Watford might end up like west ham or Blackburn.. We don't know for sure.. lol
That's the magic of Le Prof, the kind of manager we'll never see again at the club ever again...
Wenger is the most underrated manager ever
wenger and underrated? what?
Exactly! Dumb kids fell into all the memes about him in a period where he had half players yet overachieved with them and kept getting CL with a midtable like squads! Even in the great years with many titles Arsenal never spent big! If he got to spend like other managers he would've broken all records!
@@alaooooy7 I don't think a lot people in general saw the genius in Wenger. Especially modern football where everything revolved around trophies so when we had our drought people sort of thought he became senile.
Yet this 'senile' oldman had nothing but love for the club and even revealing that he was an Arsenal fan the whole time, this oldman got us champions league for 20 consecutive years; sure we always get knocked out in group stages but it beats getting knocked out in European group stages like we did this year🙄
And now look what happened. We're playing boring football, shitty tactics, a mercenary as a captain (Auba can leave for all I care, he's just a glory Hunter and I wouldn't be surprised when he leaves), shit midfield, and all the wengerball players were sold and no one batted an eye ; then surprise pikachu face when we play shit and in the position we're in now.
@@Travisbig7 Not everything revolves on trophies in modern football. Everything revolves about money! He was in a club that never spends for such a long time! He bought Campbell for nothing and Kolo for half a million and Lehmann for a million and a half and went invincible with them in defence. Look at how much United spent in those times for Ferdinand and Van Der Saar! Pep now is spending 60m per fullback and per winger yet Wenger is still in a great position when it comes to trophies. We only won three leagues in the 44 years before him, he won three in his first 8 years! We only won 6 FA Cups ever before him and he won 7 in 22 years! He overachieved considering the financial situations of the club but some people are too blind to see the bigger picture.
Wenger specialist in through pass & pinpoint pass
Imagine Thierry Henry not winning the ballandor even after this.
Got robbed man. Terrorising defences.
saurav dubey cheated in the world cup against ireland, he can suck one
Couldn't do it against the biggest teams consistently. You don't win the ballon d'or by scoring against Bolton and Middlesborough lol.
@@Treeesmith Did he really? I never knew. The Irish sure do keep that one quiet.
There was a magician called Dinheo
Porto won the champions league that year. Deco
No mention
I always said Arsene Wenger was a top manager, despite having a few flaws. Hard to admit for a Chelsea fan like myself, but the Invincibles were a really special event, maybe impossible to replicate by any team. Respect and congratulations, dear rivals!

Back to back seasons without losing an away game, 14 match win streak away from home in 13/14, undefeated in 49 games, 10 consecutive clean sheets in the ucl, all incredible statistics. Wenger is undoubtedly a legend of the game.
@superflea FA Cup 13/14 and 14/15. I don't care what's on your mind, but that's technically back to back titles.
The greatest PL team. Everywhere on the pitch you had these perfectly balanced and complementary combinations. Henry/Bergkamp, Vierra/Gilberto, Pires/Cole. Each of these players had huge individual talent, but understood each other and worked together as a team.
Not close
Lauren shouldn't be forgotten, very underrated player, but he was excellent. Same deal in regards to Ray Parlour, without him we wouldn't have gone invincible. He terrorized the opposition, we need another Ray Parlour in this Arsenal side, same deal with Vieira. We'll get there again, if we continue to bring in very good young players like Guendouzi and Martinelli, and continue to produce academy players like Saka & Nelson.
as an arsenal fan, mourinhos team was better. but I would say a better way to put it is that team was the most entertaining team in premier league history
Man United's treble chasing squad >>
@@miltonhatzidakis3351 moanios team was no where better. The PL went for extra promotion by grabbing jose who had beat manure with his porto team and then won the cl. If he faced Arsenal then ik sure they would have beaten porto and Moronio.
And they say we were lucky to go invincible 😌.... Wenger planned and prepared for this
Every team needs luck to be invincible. Yakubu should have taken that unbeaten run away in the last minute of the penultimate game at Portsmouth, but he missed a relatively easy chance. It was a great achievement and one that may never be repeated. There is always good fortune in runs like this, there has to be. Liverpool this season is an example of where one mis-calculation or one off day, has ened that quest
@@alpaca9044 it was not a miscalculation.Apart from quality, It was about having the correct mindset. Liverpool's 44 game run showed their mindset was good, but not as good as the Invincibles
Not luck because he planned for the invincible as he had prior to the start of the season his team can finish the season unbeaten.
@@richardrichu7644 - Luck was involved, you need a little luck to go 49 games unbeaten. Our luck ran out when Sir Alex and the refs fucked us over.
Will there be another Invincibles?

There have been a couple of close calls but it will be tough!
@@FootballMadeSimple 9 out of 10 times this Liverpool Team would've smashed Watford.. Liverpool were undoubtedly the Best in the World and not just England.. But even this side had an off game against Watford which just goes out to show how hard it really is to go for a Season Unbeaten.... 🙌

Have you ever seen anything 27 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss of only 29 games in Premier League era? If not, appreciate this Liverpool team. Liverpool’s main target this year is to win the PL first. We will look for what can we achieve the next season.
@@kkb3091 yeah loss 1 to liverpool 0 to arsenal
@@Oa1565 well, with that 0 loss, you only managed 90 points and with 1 loss we managed to win 97 points last season. Have Arsenal fans ever dreamt of getting this much point in their wildest dreams? We came close last season and this season to becoming invincibles. It is difficult to become invincible I agree, but not definitely impossible. It is definitely possible for this Liverpool team.
@@kkb3091 with those 90 pts they won the title. with 97, you finish second. The aim is to accumulate the most pts in that season in relation to other teams. 87, 97 does not matter. What matters is winning the title. Arsenal did with 90 pts. Liverpool could not do with 97 pts. I would rather win the title with lesser pts than no title with more points
Mercy Arsene !! Mastermind of the beautiful game !! Gonna miss the days 😢
its merci
Can you make a video on what went wrong with Wenger as time oassed
Great idea!
Football Made Simple jup please make that
The Long story short is kronke gave wenger very little money and forced him to sell many players which led everyone in the staff and eventually the team to no longer care
Gamerx - GP107HD we built a new stadium so we didn’t have money or good players to keep up with top of the table teams but wenger always got us ucl football also a lot of our players were incredible wonderful players but injury prone and were never fit which was also a huge problem but wenger did great to get us into top 4 from 2007-2013 after that it went downhill we had the money but kroenke didn’t really give us much at all and yes wenger didn’t like to spend often but still he got very frustrated often but took all the blame instead of blaming others like for example saying giroud is enough in 2014 when he wasn’t given enough money to sign a striker instead of saying I didn’t get the money I needed the season after that for me should have been wengers last and he could have won the league as well we had the best defense in the league with per and kosc and cech being incredible and ozil having a amazing season but again the problem was giroud who went I think like 16 games without a goal something insane like that so if we had signed someone like laca or auba that season we would have won the league and wenger would have retired a legend
The year after for me was the worst season in the modern wenger era it was embarrassing in every competition and the signings were awful and didn’t work out which some of the blame goes to wenger whike some goes to Ivan gazidas who I blame so much for our demise I fucking hate that man he ruined our club so badly he didn’t help wenger at all instead he dragged him back
In his good bye day he looked so sad because he was driven back by stupid fans blaming him for everything not realizing that he had so much to offer and he didn’t want to leave the club he loves in the state they are in which is shit
Jose Achu bro ur not even speaking English and stop typing in caps it’s annoyikg

@@FootballMadeSimpleMan United 07/08,Arsenal invincibles,Liverpool 18/19
@@gg_fireland216 Chelsea 2004/05 was really strong! They won 29 games and lost 1!
you mean how everyone is calling this liverpool side overrated? hilarious how the arsenal team is so good even with lesser stats than this liverpool team. Yet one gets plaudits while excuses are made for why liverpool is so good this season
Highbury played a big part too. The pitch is so small and so close to the stands, opposing teams need time to adjust and Wenger could mask the shortcomings of his aging defense while dominating possession and creating chances
I think that it is basically impossible to go unbeaten now. There are a much wider range of tactics, so it is so difficult to come up with a system that can get past all of them. The main reason why this was so successful was because most teams used a 4-4-2, so it was easier to prepare. It is possible but I think that this Liverpool team will be the closest to do it ever again (or at least for the next 50 years)
Been waiting for this video. So happy its out!
With how the teams are doing, Wenger and Ferguson are so underrated

Fascinating video. 💯👏🏼 🔴
I thought i missed the old intro music.. but this is even better
Nice one explaination
Thats why we call Aesene the Professor
AMAZING analysis!.. This is what I wanted, to compare to Arteta's style of football. You just prooved that Arteta's football is the same as Wenger's football albeit with different players. The players from invincible compared to their current versions: Defence : Lauren/Zivchenko, Sol Cambell/Saliba, Kolo/Gabriel, Cole/Ben White --- MD: Gilberto/Partey --- MF : Vieira/Xhaka, Bergkamp/Odegaard,--- AT : Pires/Saka, Henry/Jesus, Lungjberg/Martinelli. It makes sense, becoz as you pointed out, though wenger starts as 4-4-2, the team moves into a more 4-2-3-1 formation, which is what Arteta plays form the get go. Xhaka and Oddegard, joins the attack to create more attacking options just like how Bergkamp and Vieira did. Pires coming into the midfield just like Saka, and Martinelli trying to beat his man to get into the box like lungberg. While Henry floats around just like Jesus. Ben White joins to attack the wings, wile Zivchenko tucks into midfield to add numbers in midfield to help partey just like what Cole/Lauren did. Its AMAZING!!!!.. Basically, Arteta is following wenger's invicible Philosophy, which making it abit more tactically sharper the way Pep does it. This goes to show great footballing brain by Wenger, and how he could have won more trophies had the owners backed him with funds. His only strong team was the invincibles, after that he couldnt get a full strong squad on every position which means he could not challenge for the trophy, not becoz he was outdated or cannot cut it with the newer managers. He just didnt have the MONEY!!!.. Fu*king Kroenke's!!!! I have always been a Wenger IN guy, nd I will take Wenger back in a heartbeat if Arteta is no longer there.
Loving the content my man!

@@FootballMadeSimple seems like a video idea to me mate.
@@FootballMadeSimple simply "no" he didn't adapt well to the modern generation of football. 4-4-2(one of CM pushing in the attack & other in the defence) has been outdated currently replaced by 4-3-3
A loud, stupid ungrateful minority said that but media zoomed in too much on them. They were barking a few years before they left yet they think he left because of their barking and see it as an achievement! He's the clubs biggest legend ever and we will always be in his debt.
But failure to adapt cannot survive(I hope anyone told/taught you that)😁

That line-up only started two matches during the entire 2003-2004 season. Vieira played in August and September, then didn't play again until the middle of January. So it was down to Gilberto Silva, Ray Parlour, and Edu to hold down the midfield until Vieira returned.
Wenger loved this club so much staying when he knew it was going down. He would have won more if he left to another bigger club with money. Kroenke messed up his legacy. I feel sorry for him
Arsenal won the league that time without no tactics, just free flowing football that always ended in the back of the net. And to top it up they had players like Henry, Dennis Bergkam and Patrick Vieira. With all the tactics going in this era I personally don't think they will be new invincibles in EPL, mark my words.
Interesting take. Tactics are advancing rapidly
How far of Invincible title were LP? In first half of season they beated everyone except MU where they draw. But they were absolutely dominant. Then there was match like against Aston Villa where they turn 0-1 to 2-1 in last five minutes of match. That was the mentality of winners. Just one bad day... like against Watford and Invincible title disappear but one day, there will be team of demigods who will win Invincible title like Arsenal did in 03/04 season.
@@martinchromec9277 no way there will not be another invincibles in the Premier league
@@martinchromec9277 they will be no invisibles man because now there is something called man making, e.g M.Salah scored 32 goals in 17/18 season, what happened next season, although Salah was still scoring but he didn't do so well specially the first half of the Season because every team in the EPL started man making Salah when they faced Liverpool. But Klopp was so smart that he used this situation as his advantage and Mane and Firmino were seeing much of the ball because they were completely unmarked. Now everybody figured out how Liverpool plays and they lost 4 games in row, because opposition now starred man making the full backs which is where Liverpool are very dangerous. I can assure u that if the EPL resumes after this pandemic Liverpool will struggle to win any games, because of what happened in the games where Liverpool faced,Atlatic Madrid and Watford.
@@legend-jp5to LMAO you are funny. Klopp will change tactics again then. "Liverpool will struggle to win any games" LMAO.
Man marking ain't a new thing either.
This isolation stuff is messing with your head.
Repping South Affrica. Well done man!!!!!
This video makes thing complicated.
Wenger went unbeaten due to excellent efficiency.
Wenger was soooo efficient in passing and scoring, mainly Henry, Pires, Ljunberg.
I watch the entire season, although they are behind, Wenger knew they will score because those three are so so so good at that time.
Watching how they played sometimes was unreal
It is one thing to do it and another to say I am going to do it and then doing it. So fucking shonen. I can't find any manager saying that they will have an unbeaten season and then following the talk with the walk. A dreamer and a realist.
Was an extraordinay team, full of prime players. But all this resume in 4 players, they makes all the difference in the pich. Bergkamp was the number 1, without him Arsenal could't do anything of that. Second Henry; he was the most deadly striker in the premier league, if you let him run or just a little piece of free space...well you are dead. Third Vieira; his physics capacity and his timing was essencial to keep the balance in the lines, and gives the chance to make a high pression. Forth Pirés; his inside runs brake the middle field and he can finish with a marvelous class. Also Henry played as left side-half in Juventus and Pirés as a wing in Marseille. So both know what they should do if they change positions on the pitch. It's like play with your Brother, you know him very well and you can read his mind LOL.
Wenger is a Genius!
Can I get a video on the role of Targetmen in the new school of coaching?
Every formation has their owns strength and flaws. What I could see the biggest strength or I could say, the advantage invincible team has, was the Arsenal Highbury field. The field was so much smaller. Arsenal team was so quick with their gameplay. Much stronger, faster, and greatest bond between players. They understood each other too well. The fans back then was so much nearer to the team. The atmosphere that we could not find at Emirates. If you did watch the documentary of the invincible, Arsenal players back then said they could know where their mates run or move without seeing them, even blind folded. Before opponent read their gameplay, opponent too late.
Formation of 4 4 2 is nothing new. Back then the era , 4 4 2 was the most famous formation. It is always easier to explain what a formation does. But the decisive factor is not the formation.
Waw your amazing comment inspired me. When I read it I thought you wrote something in my mind. I never forget the pace and the intensity atmosphere in Highbury. It was a time of man not a toddler. I remember the word of that era” when you have a pace and the power always heart and minds are with you”.

Might be cool to do Mourinho's Chelsea side between 04-06 to go along with the Arsenal and man utd teams from these periods
Great video, but don't say that the league was their only achievement because it belittles what they did. Everyone wants to win the league, it's amazing what they did.
No champions league leaves the question of the quality of the league open. It seems they were not that great against top quality opposition.

Wenger is a world class manager for sure. His reputation was ruined after 2004 Invincble, by the Kroenke. All those 'almost sign players' joke will not exist if Arsenal got better club owner.
Can you do one on the Ajax of 1972?
🔥❤️🔥
who else heard the "Dennis Bergkamp" in the background ?
I'm an Arsenal fan. There was nothing anything invincible about that so-called "Invincible Arsenal" team we talking about. Luck and good fortune played a huge part in them going undefeated throughout the season. Especially the game against Portsmouth that was as good as lost if not for some incredible officiating.
Yeah the invincibles are a bit of a myth. Lost to a lot of premier league sides in other competitions.
I’m sorry m, I saw the way you spelt David Seaman as “David Seamen” and now I can’t see unsee it.
Wenger is one of the brilliant minds in soccer.
Probably Pep's or Klopp team have some chance of going unbeaten whole season, but the league is getting tougher so it's also tougher for them to achieve. I'm now interested to see what went wrong tactically for Arsene after this season, from a champion team to a team of steady decline. Perhaps you can make a video of the contrasts of Man Utd under Sir Alex and their rise VS Arsenal decline.
- aging star player
- Vieira left
- Emirates Stadium, causing them need to adjusting that MUCH with their money, transfer, even player salary
Although I believe that 05/06 were the last time this Invincibles team had great moment, went to UCL final with 10 consecutive clean sheet, and on the brinknof their first UCL title if not because Lehmann red card and Larsson
Wenger at his Prime was feared by European teams let alone the PL.
Still the best starting side I've ever seen
Most importantly everyone was having fun
Jupp Heynckes's Bayern Munich, especially how he took revenge on PSG (3-0) after Ancelotti was sacked following a 0-3 loss to PSG.
I don't know why some Arsenal fans are having a go against Liverpool. This Liverpool team had lost just 1 match against Mancity last season. This season they so far only lost 1 match to Watford. Everyone should appreciate them. They were not invincible. But maintaining that level of performance (97 points with only 1 loss) and (82points out of possible 87 with only one loss) is not an easy thing. Dominating the league is a thing but dominating the league this way is another thing. We appreciate what Arsenal achieved in 2003/2004. Only 2 teams in PL era came close to that feat,Chelsea 2005/2006 and Liverpool 2018/2019.It means how difficult it is. But even Arsene said, it is not impossible to go undefeated in a season.
Its because its the only thing Arsenal fans have to celebrate. They look unlikely to win much in the coming years. funny how Liverpool were once called the history club.
Gilberto Silva might be one of the most underrated midfielder of all time
Can u do jose Mourinho's chelsea 2004-06
Hi can i use this video for my TH-cam channel?
This team weren't just a team they were like a family
The fact remains that even with the premier league threatening to be suspended Liverpool STILL couldn't go unbeaten!
Also I feel like Bergkamp and Gilberto were the unheralded heroes of this side
They were good at drawing.

Henry, Pires, Cole 😍
Always try to replicate this tactic in football manager
I think he is the greatest manager so far
I don't actually fully agree with this in-depth tactical analysis. Gilberto silva was an amazing player and from what I saw of arsenal, players like Pires and Henry were just a bit above that of Parlour, Anelka etc. They also had that bit of luck where some teams in previous seasons just missed out on that luck. I loved the team and some of the tactical analysis is correct. However sometimes it is mainly the fact that even though roughly the same tactics are employed, it is just that some key players are just much better/ more complete. I think what I am trying to say is, they just had better players that season. And I don't see Jens lehman or toure distributing quicker, if anything that side became more measured at the back and quicker in the final third..
The only team that can never be copied in 100 years, ever.
