Produktbeschreibung

A stunning updated edition of this photographic celebration of Arsene Wenger's time as manager at Arsenal, with an added section to bring the story up to date.

In September 1996 a Frenchman, so little known in English football that fans asked "Arsène Who?", walked into Arsenal. In the subsequent 22 years as manager, he transformed the club. A total renovation of the training, stadium, style, economics of the team and the attraction of a global audience has taken place under Wenger's instruction.

This fascinating era is chronicled from the very beginning with distinctive photographs taken from inside the inner sanctum of the club by official Arsenal photographer Stuart MacFarlane, who has had privileged access for many years. Award winning journalist Amy Lawrence introduces each section to set the scene.

This captivating collection of images is captioned with personal anecdotes from Arsène Wenger himself as he reminisces about the significant moments and people that have defined his time at the club.
