Arsenal FC: Arsene Wenger heading for saddest farewell but Brian Clough is proof brilliance endures

Arsenal's 5-1 thrashing at Bayern Munich left Arsene Wenger facing increased calls for his two decade-tenure as manager to be concluded, but has it come too late for a dignified end?

The Frenchman's performance is under intense scrutiny as Arsenal – without a title in 13 years, and no European trophy under his reign – look certain to exit the Champions League at the first knockout stage for the seventh season in succession.

Amid the howls of displeasure at present, however, it should not be forgotten what Wenger has achieved for the North London club during his remarkably long spell in charge.
