Wenger's last words were about keeping the club's values

Vieira wasnt a holding midfielder. He was box to box. Gilberto was the invisible wall holding mid

Mikel Arteta is following in Arsene Wenger’s footsteps at Arsenal. In a span of 5 years, he has transformed Arsenal into an elite club again and in back to back seasons they’ve been competing for the premier league title against Manchester City and it tells you how much progress that’s been made under him. During their Golden Era with Wenger as their manager, they were one of the best teams we’ve ever seen they were consistently in the race for the title and also were seen as a contender in Europe. With Thierry Henry Dennis Bergkamp Robert Pires Patrick Viera etc, they were a force to be reckoned with in English football. They won 3 league titles under him and what they did in the 2003-04 season is incredibly difficult even though they drew 12 games, they it really went unbeaten throughout the season which is an incredible achievement. They have been rebuilding for many years and initially the post Wenger era was difficult for them as Unai Emery a very good manager struggled to fill his shoes and after they got Mikel Arteta, the fortunes of this football club changed. With the results that they were getting, there were fans that turned against him and felt as if he wasn’t the right manager for this long term project. There was a feeling that he could get sacked with the results getting worse and worse. At the time people forget that they won a trophy and then despite not winning games, you can see the philosophy that Arteta was trying to implement in this team which is reminiscent to the way that Manchester City play because he did work under Pep Guardiola as his assistant manager. Even though they finished outside of the top 4 in the 2021-22 season, Arsenal showed signs of progress after finishing in 8th the 2 seasons prior. Now, Arsenal are seen as a contender for the premier league title. Yes, last season they bottled the Premier League title after being in 1st place for majority of the season, but the positive thing is that they secured champions league football for the first time in 7 seasons, and nobody expected them to be in a title race. Many of us saw last season as an overachievement, but this season they’re even better. They haven’t played in the champions league for years and on paper getting to the quarterfinals is good enough even though they lost one of the weakest Bayern Munich teams we’ve even, regardless of how they’re playing, Bayern Munich have elite players and they’re a team with experience and high pedigree in champions league football meanwhile Arsenal are relatively young team that’s gonna gain experience in this competition for the years to come. Even though they’ve played a game more, Arsenal are top of the league and if results go their way, they might win their first premier league title since the 2003-04 season. That would be a significant achievement because not only have they taken a big step forward, but they’re going to beat Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City and stop them from winning 4 consecutive titles in a row. The premier league is the most competitive league in the world, but from a longevity perspective Manchester City have turned it into a “farmers leagues because they’ve won 5 titles in the last 6 years, they have a chance of winning 6 out of 7 league titles and as good of a team they are, you don’t want to see the same team dominating the league every year. They’re inevitable at this stage of a season, but no matter what happens, Arsenal didn’t bottle the title because they’ve been superb of late and whatever happens, they’re going to be a contender in the premier league for the years to come and also in the champions league, they’ve never ever won it, and I think they can also be a contender in Europe as well because they’re only gonna get better from here.

Correction, the 1930s were Arsenals golden era, we won five leagues in this decade.

If we win the league this season, the documentary will be emotional

Under Mikel Arteta, Arsenal are winning games in different ways. With Wenger in charge they were known for playing breathtaking football and dominating teams physicality, this current Arsenal team has both and a mentality that was missing under previous teams. From possession to counter attacking football, Arsenal know how to break down teams in different ways and this is something that makes your attack very lethal when you can play against low blocks play out from the back and hit teams on the counter attack. This is a skill and this requires elite level coaching. In modern football fullbacks have changed particularly in this team as they’re using CBs as fullbacks on the left and the right. From a tactical perspective, they’re a well cohesive team and Arsenal have also developed this ability in being able to grind out results even when they don’t play at their best and they know how to find a way when the tough gets going even if it hasn’t translated direly into trophies yet and in the future it will even if it doesn’t, Arteta is one of the best tactical managers in the world right now. The most impressive thing about his tenure at Arsenal is the recruitment and now they’ve been able to rebuild under him. They got rid of so many players and he even made a big decision to strip Aubameyang of the captaincy and got rid of him and while it was a controversial decision at the time since he was their top goalscorer, it was the right decision for the team in the long run since in a young squad, it’s detrimental to them to have a mercenary in the squad and Mikel Arteta saw that in him. They also got rid of a lot of players and every new signing they got divided opinion. Ben White is now an elite right back as he’s solid on defense and his attacking ability has also improved a lot even though he started his career as a center back at Brighton and when Arsenal signed him, 50 million was seen as an overpay. Gabriel and William Saliba might be the best defensive partnership in the premier league right now and has been in the last 2 seasons and they complement each other so well and as a result Arsenal don’t concede a lot of goals. Martin Odegaard was seen as a Real Madrid reject who’s now an elite midfielder and has had back to back seasons with 10+ goals in all competitions from the midfield position and he is the best midfielder in the premier league after Kevin De Bruyne in my opinion. Declan Rice has elevated this team to another level and a big reason for why they’re even better than last season, he’s a CDM, he’s playing more as an 8 and a box to box midfielder and when you pay 100 million for a player they have to be the right fit for your team and that’s what Rice has been for Arsenal and he is their Rodri. I was confused on why Arsenal signed another goalkeeper in David Raya, but he’s been a massive upgrade on Ramsdale even though he did very well. Arteta has been able to revive struggling players. We all thought that Kai Havertz was a flop and even he as a CF looks much more comfortable at Arsenal than he ever did at Chelsea and Jorginho has also been a great addition. Given how badly he’s flopped at Chelsea, they dogged a bullet on Murdyk since Leandro Trossard has been ice cold and this guy is always scoring goals and it’s an asset for them to have. Bukayo Saka has elevated his game to another level as he went from a LB to an elite winger. There’s been constant debate as to whether or not he’s a world class player, with him having 20 goals and 14 assists in all competitions this season, it’s proof that he’s not a “one season wonder” and I think that people forget that he’s only 22 years old yet is producing those numbers and being the main man on a title contender. After Mohamed Salah, Saka will be the best right winger in the world let alone the premier league. His development on players and recruitment decisions have been a foundation for their success and hopefully Arsenal can translate this into trophies.

The obsession over Arsenal is crazy given how Liverpool Chelsea Tottenham and United all folded this season and given how well Villa have performed in the premier league. I’m proud of my team

Compliments for the effort but at the end of the video I'm still wondering what's " the scary thing about Arsenal that no one is noticing"?

I think when Wenger's Arsenal started to buy a more technical player rather than physical was because Barca success influence Wenger at that time.

Arsene Wenger is the greatest man in Arsenal's history. I'd love to see Mikel Arteta succeed and create his own legend in Arsenal but Arsene Wenger will always be the greatest man in Arsenal's history. He gave this club its DNA!

Firstly the stadium cost was massive and that withstricted our budget as Wenger was following financial fair play. This gave us so many problems. Arteta is our guy. We love him.

Bukayo Saka did not start out as a left back. Why do people keep saying this. He started out as a left winger but due to constant injuries to Kolasinac and Tierney he was then deployed as a makeshift left back to cover for them.

Listening to this got tears off my eyes especially, the Granit story. Weldone Arteta

Good effort summarising the last quarter of a century. Subbed!

Also, Emery didn't mess up the team. His first year was good. During his first summer transfer, the club didn't spend on transfers he wanted. If we bought who he wanted, Zaha, and others, things would have been different.

Beautiful vid ♥️

Sanchez regretted leaving Arsenal.. after his first few months at manu. He begged Arsenal to bring him back.

I remember Arsenal fans who werent "Arteta Out" being mocked "TrUsT tHe pRoCeSs". Morons.

Truth is it wasn't just the new stadium that meant Arsenal couldn't compete, it was the inflow of oil money at the same time, Chelsea and then later Man City's spending power were the primary issues we faced competing

Timber is the best Dutch player, remember what happened the last time Arsenal could say that, Invincible 2.

Arteta is one of the best things that happened to Arsenal. He will bring major trophies to this club eventually. Patience

As an Arsenal fan thank you for noticing Arteta as a manger!

I was never Arteta out but I think that’s only because I always believe in giving Managers time. Arteta is now the 2nd best Manager in the Premier League.

Very very beautifullllll video. Thank you so much

When arsenal Start winning trophies again, nobody will stop them, Arteta is creating a super team

Rice IS the new Vieira! We need another attack minded midfielder to compliment Odegaard. I see it that if we sign a LB, CM, Str and a backup to push Saka..... We will win the PL and have a great opportunity to finally make a name in Europe.

Bayer Leverkusen is getting the ''Invincible'' title in germany! With Xhaka at the heart of the squad.

Fàbregas partly left for trophies. But it's a little harsh to think about it like that, it's only partly true. Fàbregas was a la masía product. He played with MESSI at youth level and they're good friends. Fàbregas was returning home, and home just happened to be the best team in the world, perhaps the greatest team ever!?

I love this analysis 😍❤

I have been an Arsenal fan for 22 years. Being a fan is a roller coaster ride to say the least. There are many highs and many lows. Watching Arsenal finish 8th two seasons in a row was brutal. But, I always trusted Mikel Arteta. I knew we couldn't be like every other squad that just replaces their manager when he struggles. Now, they are reaping the rewards. The Kroenkes have realized that Arsenal winning the Premier League will bring them much more money than their American teams do. Josh Kroenke realizes this and now spends a lot of time in London and personally talks regularly with Edu about signing the best players. Arsenal is not going anywhere. Last season wasn't a fluke and neither is this season. We will win the Premier League within the next few season, watch and trust the process.

Its clear that Arteta knows what he is doing with his signings

Arteta knows what he is doing.

Well done video

There's no body better than Pep and Arteta. He's over at Arsenal now but the saying is still true

Fan base is NOT divided with Arteta. Only the shitty pundits that hate Arsenal are asking for Arteta out.

Please discuss, why did we sell martinez. Still not fully convinced of raya. Overall artea going in the right direction. Gooner since 1958/59 season

I know football is about winning major trophies. At the same time, I'm enjoying the football we're playing. Theres still levels for us to get to the elite level

Naa Sanchez was done when he left Arsenal, not close to Arsenal's best player, as you can see form his failure at Man U. He was bad for at least 6 months before leaving.

This guy looks like one of our Spanish legends. I crown him Cesc Fattygas

If you don’t think you can do it you have no chance at all. - Arsene Wenger

In backed Arteta from before he signed. Gut feeling rules over the first 3-6 months of results when you actually know your football.

1 it's pronounced Venger 2 it was the first time we made the quarter finals in the champions league in 14 years, not decades

Partey was the closest remsemblence of P.Viera, just sadly his leg so fragile

A couple things worth mentioning. Ben white is the second manager when on the pitch and keeps everyone on the squads head on straight. Second, thomas partey. He either needs more playing time to get used to being on the pitch, or he needs to go. His role has been filled by rice or odegaard. Its money that can be used elsewhere, and its unfair for a player of his skill to just be chillin as a sub.

After what Arteta has done to Arsenal Past two seasons show what Arteta has been doing shows Arsenal are heading in the right direction!! But still there are people out there still say Arteta out! Doesn’t make sense

KZfaqrs going all out posting about Arsenal's improvements for clicks and hoping to jinx it 😂😂

What a video .... I'm no arsenal fan but i did enjoy it a great deal. It's too bad I'm hoping, city will take home the prize😂😂. Anyway may the best team win

You are good 😂

"I am not talking about winning against Erik Ten Hag Manchester United "☠️🤣🙏

Here is a hot take, Arsenal will win the UCL in the near future. They seem to be going in that direction squad wise (both the first team and depth wise), and the fact they made a relatively deep run in the UCL this year without a proper number 9 after qualifying for the UCL for the first time in a while convinces me.

Arteta is doing a good job at the gunner❤rice. Party. Captain everyone is arsenal❤

U kept mentioning Viera Veira Just To fucking leave Thomas Partey, my boy start getting serious

1 minute in and your facts are already wrong... Wegners last season he finished 6th in 17/18, Emery then took us to a European final in his first year and finished fifth in 18/19 which was qualification for Europa again. Poor results up until December 19/20 are what cost Emery the sack. It was Arteta in 20/21 that finished 8th so the following 21/22 season, when Arsenal's true identity came into fruition, was the first year without Europe.

Arsenal didn't have the money to buy players, and had to sell players to pay for stadiums. Arsenal isn't elite until they win something. Wenger won the league quickly. It's been 5 years, and Arteta hasn't won the league, just yet.

I got to 2 mins in. I can’t carry on when you can’t even say ‘Wenger’ correctly…

Pattrick viera is so underrated one of the top 5 best cdm in priemer league for me top 3 but i think rodri will be there if he go unbeaten like this💀💀

those opening statements about Arteta out haven't aged well have they? lol

I love some fans moaning and bitching about "we need a complete rebuild" and at the very same time crying about how the guy currently in the process of implementing a complete rebuild has to go because they didn't immediately win the champions league. Actual clowns

So all along Diego Costa was always an Arsenal fan. Your resemblance with him is uncanny

What killed Wenger was moving to the Emirates and not being able to foresee Chelski Russian money coming in which bumped us down the pecking order then along comes City's oil money. Wenger was trying to stay true to the game and FFP which would never have worked. Going against United, Chelsea and City all spending mega money. It was horrible how Wenger was treated at the end but that hatred should have been pointed further up to the board and owners. Then throw in players soo quick to jump shit. Sanchez hurt alot more than RVP leaving. Probably the best player we've had during the Emirates era. Fast forward and Arteta is doing something amazing but again up against Pep's city but still getting called bottle jobs by fans of spuds, united and Chelski lol. How City have got away with 115 charges just shows how corrupt the FA and Premiership have been with how fast they have reacted to Everton and Forest. Praying the spuds can pull some magic out and beat City. I see no shame in finishing 2nd twice to City. Their squad is stacked beyond belief. As a die hard fan since 1992 we are in a generational shift and never been soo happy to look forward to seeing Saka, Ode, Saliba, Big Gab, Martinelli etc all hitting their primes with us then the players coming through the youth ranks look insane aswel. Good times ahead just need a partner for Rice as Partey can't stay fit all season, New top class striker and a new winger or Olise to rotate with Saka for right and left wing as he suffers from burn out.

Rice is definitely in the same league as Vierra, probably more versatile.

Thank you for your video. I think you need a better microphone

He's beaten wenger to 100 pl wins , people will always talk 💩🤷‍♂️😂

Watched the entire video, but what is your message about the “scary truth” nobody is seeing?

Correction: Auba wasn't sent on loan to Barca. His contract with Arsenal was terminated to facilitate him joining them. Also, I came here for the "scary truth." Not a history lesson on my own club that you clearly Google'd.

Rice, White, Trossard, Gabriel Magalhaes, Martin Ødegaard, Kai Havertz, Tomiyasu. Arteta knows what he is doing.

You are wrong…. Once our opponents beat Saliba and Gab, we are done… Raya don’t save anything.

Goes to show how stupid the general footballing fanbase are, as well as the media, and ex-players & pundits.

foden left the chat foden is 1st saka is second then salsah is third

Great video mate!

Saka is overrated, last time he actually went past a defender as a right winger?? Would take olise or kudus all day long over saka

Thierry henry had won the world cup as a winger before he joined arsenal, his form had dropped but he had status before he came

This must be an American nobody pronounce his name Wenger it’s pronounced Venger

Because Arsenal's fanbase are so entitled, they'll be hounding Arteta to go just like they did to Wenger if they go on a "major" trophy drought

You're missing a lot of context. For instance, the "Wenger Out" campaign was initiated by xenophobe Adrian Durham, then with Talksport, who would constantly mock and criticize Wenger. Supporters who echoed this sentiment were often influenced by Durham and the equally xenophobic DT from AFTV, who later got convicted for kidnapping his ex-girlfriend. AFTV significantly amplified the "Wenger Out" narrative, but it was a marginal movement at best. Thinking Wenger was the problem overlooks the reality for most genuine Arsenal fans. There was no Financial Fair Play, the stadium debt needed to be managed, and despite these challenges, we consistently qualified for the Champions League until the stadium was paid off. Interestingly, Man City had their oil-rich owners finance their stadium, a luxury we didn't have. You're ignoring two crucial points: Financial Fair Play wasn't in place, and the "Wenger Out" campaign remained marginal until the UK media amplified it. Many of us believed that Red and White Holdings could help retain our players, so we were more focused on board changes rather than management changes.

What is the SCARY Truth About Arsenal Nobody is Noticing? Watched to the end and didn't get any.. lol

It’s pronounced Venger. The name is German - he is from the part of France, Alsace, which has been part of both Germany and France over the years. Come on!!!!!!!

You should rename your channel “Scary things that no one notices”

Francesc Soler?

Where is Partey???

He is good 😂

saka is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay far from henry

I swear to God, if American's running football channels don't stop pronouncing Arsene Wenger's last name as "wang-er" I'm going to blow a gasket. Never seen this channel before, clicked on the obvious click-baitey title to see what was up, hear that nonsense in the first 20 seconds, and then see he's recycled this title for multiple videos. Jesus tap-dancing Christ!

Artea is 1 Trophy from a possible 17 at the moment if he doesn't win the prem that is 1 Trophy from a possible 18 he had 26 Signing at 637 millions abd 5 seasons 4 full seasons and still can't win the league while throwing the cups in the bin so SACK HIM FOUR HANSI FLICK OR INZAGHI And Get Are Great Club Winning again

Your opinions on Arsenal is interesting to say the least . Arssene Wenger came at 1996 when British Culture of Drinking DRUNKARDS SUPPOSDLY PROFFESSIONAL FOOTBALLERS AND THAT INCLUDES THE WHOLE OF BRITISH PREMERSHIP SO Arsene change a culture that's it and other follow suits.

First Uenger, then Wanger. No, just no.

When did rice bcm no6

I was genuinely interested in this video until I heard how he pronounced Wenger and I was done

As one of the fans that supported Arsenal from his first day... This is a good vid, Arteta will hopefully start dominating from now with this team

So what's the scary truth?

and......PARTEY ???

Wanger

The only thing i've noticed about Arsenal is 4 trophy less years after they spent 700m quid which is beyond embarrassing

You started talking about Wenger with a W. It's pronounced Venger. If you can't even get the name of the clubs greatest ever manager correct, I'm not going to watch ...

Lol this pronunciations tho

I admit he is a good manager and turned around and built something that feels actually special. Hoeveri can't can't stand him personally, his voice makes my skin crawl.

Can't watch... learn how to pronounce Arsene's name.

Puts on an arsenal shirt for the video but can't even pronounce player or manager names correctly...

Arsene Wenger would have won much more had he left us to take on one of the many top jobs in rich clubs that he refused for Arsenal. He overachieved in the second half of his Arsenal career with all the stadium debts and wage limitation. He was fighting against clubs backed by entire states while having to sell his best players regularly and he still played the best football and challenged in many seasons until injuries hit and the squad proved not to have enough depth. Even when he created history for Arsenal, he wasn't really backed financially and he overachieved. Ferguson spent more money on Ferdinand than Wenger spent on Lehmann, Lauren, Toure, Campbell, Cole, Ljungberg, Vieira, Gilberto and Pires combined! That was about half the team he went invincible with! He's one of the greatest managers ever, he gave us our best ever days and Arsenal wouldn't be anywhere near as healthy and as financially stable it is had he not given the sacrifice and had he not taken us through the storm that the new stadium brought.

I was laughing at these guys asking arteta to be out look at us now
