He won 3 titles in a row with Barcelona, then Bayern and has won 3 out of 4 with City. 9 domestic cups in those leagues. He's won the Champions League twice. He has also created the greatest team of all time, revolutionised the game from a tactical point of view, improved players where ever he has a been.

Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Wenger won 4 league titles in 30 years of management. Not going to deny the massive contributions to football in the PL he made but he wasnt as good as Pep has been. This argument is silly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of the impact on the game of football, no doubt about it. But whether it is correct or not, there will always be a working class "Did he really earn it" aspect to how managers are evaluated in football. He needs a "against all odds, how did he pull that off" managerial achievement on his CV - "Sir Alex at Aberdeen, Wenger at Arsenal, Rafa at Valencia and Istanbul, Klopp at Dortmund, Mourinho at Porto". Not that he needs that but until he has that, that will always be used against him by his detractors. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pique was a Man U reject, Busquets was indeed brought through by Pep, who had first managed him with the b side i think. The way that team would pass the ball though.

Not going to deny the massive contributions to football in the PL he made but he wasnt as good as Pep has been. This argument is silly. If you look at trophies and impact on football, Pep is definitely ahead. But let us say it is 2015 and Brendan Rodgers has just been fired at Liverpool. If I had the choice to pick a 1996 Wenger or a 2008 Pep, I would pick, 1996 Wenger every time. His achievements from 1997 to 2004 were off the scale on the budget he had- the transfers, the explosive style of football merging physicality and technique, etc. Yes, Pep has more trophies, but Wenger is the reason Arsenal have a brand new stadium Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mate is a manure “fan” and was laughing when he seen we were in the odds to sign him. I said to him he genuinely wouldn’t get in our team he’s too much of a bad egg, the exact type of player you don’t want when you are trying to progress.
