Now that he can sit in the Emirates Stadium stands and be a supporter of Arsenal Football Club rather than our manager, Arsène Wenger is delighted that the progress we made thanks to his 22 years of devotion is continuing under the current regime.
Our legendary manager’s place in history was already assured thanks to the three league titles and seven FA Cups he claimed, but now it is truly set in stone - or rather bronze - after he was immortalised with a statue outside the stadium.
Sitting back in our iconic north London home his success and stability helped to build, he admits that when he looks at the upward trajectory we are currently enjoying on and off the field, he is filled with satisfaction and pride that the foundations he created continue to be used as the blueprint for success by familiar faces he has complete trust in.
