Arsene Wenger Through The Headlines

22 September 1996 was a landmark day in the history of Arsenal Football Club. It was the day Arsene Wenger became the club’s manager, ushering in an era of unprecedented success.

Innovation, motivation, drive, ambition, intellect, loyalty – he had the lot. He could turn a good player into a very good player, and a very good player into a world-class star. Arsene Wenger Through The Headlines is not a traditional biography, nor a season-by-season chronicle. Instead, it tells the story of his 22 years in North London through the headlines that defined them – from the sceptical ‘Arsene Who?’ in 1996 to the emotional ‘Adieu Arsene’ in 2018. The Wenger era is explored topic by topic: his fierce rivalry with Sir Alex Ferguson, the incredible ‘Invincibles’ season, his transfer philosophy and much more. A must-read not only for Arsenal supporters but for football aficionados everywhere.
