The man known as Le Professor for his astute dissection of the game, represents the last from the generation of long-serving managers. It is hard to imagine that anyone would ever be allowed the breathing space to be at the helm of a club for two decades or more. Two decades full of eye catching football, youth development, numerous glorious moments, financial stability, trophies and definitely, trophy drought. Two decades full of stubborn resistance to the lure of joining biggest of the clubs. Here is a walk down the memory lane with one and only Arsene Wenger revisiting the memories from Strasbourg, Monaco to Highbury and modern Emirates.
