Morning all.
Arsène Wenger Arsenal’s legacy is well known worldwide. His work at the club, from 1996 onwards, changed Arsenal forever and shook the foundations of English football. Despite the fact his departure from the club was divisive, it is undeniable the Frenchman was responsible for broadening the vision of English football. As a result, Arsène Wenger: Invincible promises to pay tribute to his work at Arsenal and to forever immortalise Le Professeur in the history of football.
The documentary, directed by Gabriel Clarke and Christian Jeanpierre and produced by Noah Media Group and Onsight, reconstructs the Frenchman’s run at Arsenal, including the 2003/04 season. The story, told by Wenger himself, details the manager’s experience of living in North London for over two decades, and his obsession with football, which ultimately motivated him to attempt an unbeatable run in the Premier League.
In what is described as a never-before-told story, Wenger discusses many topics, including his own controversial 2018 departure from Arsenal. This marked the end of an era for the club and forced the board to find a successor capable of leading Arsenal back to glory. For now, the results aren’t the ones that fans hoped for, as, according to Premier League outright football betting odds according to Premier League outright football betting odds, they are fifth-favourites to win the Premier League, priced at odds of 80/1.
Described as a genius, visionary and obsessive, Wenger is the Gunners’ most successful manager ever, winning 16 trophies, including three Premier League titles. Now, with special access to unpublished archival footage, the documentary promises to shed some light on the enigma that is Wenger. In addition, the film also relies on testimonies from other legendary figures in the Premier League history, such as Thierry Henry and Sir Alex Ferguson.
Arsène Wenger: Invincible will be made available on Amazon Prime Video in 2022. Additionally, Amazon Prime Video announced earlier this year that Arsenal would be the focus of the new season of All or Nothing. The series offers the chance for fans to get an exclusive behind the scenes take on football clubs, by following a different team each year during the entirety of the season.
Although Arsenal is only just beginning to find its way after a number of disappointing seasons, the series will certainly have a lot to cover. It will be particularly interesting to see how the club works from the inside while getting a sense of the mood at London Colney during such challenging times.
In past seasons of the show, the documentary series featured teams such as Manchester City during the 2017/18 campaign when Pep Guardiola won his first Premier League and Spurs, in their 2019/2020 run when Mourinho took over and tried to reach European competitions. In this sense, regardless of how this season turns out, it will be exciting to see how Mikel Arteta steers the squad, in what could be a turning point for Arsenal.
In addition, it will be interesting to follow the evolution of some of our up-and-coming stars. In fact, it is expected that the likes of Bukayo Saka, Smith Rowe, Martin Ødegaard and Aaron Ramsdale will be heavily featured as the main stars of the series.
See you in the comments.
Morning all
New post up now
At least Saka didn’t play, or Ramsdale.
Only watched last 20 once ESR on. Protecting 5-0, boring!
They made too many changes and lost the impetus. Esr full England international now soon we will have four
Disappointing second half, where’s the pressing? where’s the accurate passing? It looks like we’ve run out of gas.
ESR on for his senior England debut.
ESR on
He won’t come up against as weak a defence as this in the Premiership. Come Saturday week he’ll be back to jogging around waiting for a penalty.
Let’s hope not.
That’s played him back into form
5 – 0 Kane’s hat-trick. 45 minutes.
I reckon Saka and ESR will get on
4 – 0 Kane gifted another by an appalling defence.
This could be anything the way Albania are playing
27 minutes 3 – 0 Henderson gets his first England goal, after a VAR offside check.
Keep them on the bench Albania are fairly physical . Let them have a nice trip to Italy and twenty minutes in San Marino
20 mins gone Albania two nil down, two players subbed due to injury and two booked. Make that three yellow cards for Albania.
Two nil Kane, totally unmarked in the box, a simple header.
If that goal by Maguire is a guide to what’s to come we should be in double figures by full-time. The Albanian defence was non-existent.
Hmm Southgate goes with out of form Kane and etrrnal bench sitter Sterling.
Hi Geoff.
ESR, Ramsdale and Saka on the bench for England.
Typical..
Gabon win 1 nil . Aubameyang penalty . Seems he hit that one better
Re Guendouzi, yes imo.
Afternoon Rico and all
I would rather hear it from Wenger’s mouth than some Journalist who has never met Arsene and would not know were Arsenal is based.
The only people that should be worried about what Arsene say’s is the owner’s, the board and maybe some players, and as for the fans if they don’t like what he say’s then so be it as long as it’s the truth. I’m looking at it as a way of helping to finally cleaning the air so the club can keep moving forward.
As for Arsene staying too long I blame Arsene 40% for not recognising that he can not get any more out of his players and it’s time to step a side and make a fresh start some were else, while I blame the owners and the board 60% for not stepping in sooner to protect both Arsene and the club from bad publicity.
Very similar to today Cicero. It is water under the bridge but I think it still matters because a lot of criticism still gets fired at the owners. I don’t think we’ll find anything out about who we might sign in the future etc.
Thanks Andrew.
I see that Guendouzi is saying he wishes to stay at Marseille when his loan spell ends. He’s currently valued at £19.8 million on Transfer Market. Should we sell him if an offer in that region comes in?
And part 2 Ramsdale

That’s all water under the bridge Rico, I’m more interested in who’s making the decisions on which players we are considering buying and in which positions we need to strengthen.
Just watched the two new 40 minute Ramsdale videos on YouTube playing a round of golf. Chatting about the move, being at Arsenal, and away with England. And that save. Such a genuine likeable fella.
Anyone interested, it’s:

I’m not sure Cicero, but if it is, I’m not sure finding out the truth would be such a problem. I’d like to know whose choice it was to sign the kind of players the club did during the second half of Arsene Wenger’s reign.
G’day all.
Rico aren’t the “all or nothing” series supposed to be warts and all? I don’t think exposing the clubs blemishes to the gaze of our spiteful tabloid media will be particularly beneficial to the fans or the players. On the other hand a few anodyne “exposes” will be of little interest to those same fans and will do little to boost Amazon’s bank balance, which is after all, the main objective of the production.
I suppose much depends on the content of his story. I can’t see him or the club giving too many secrets away.
You have to wonder if there is too much access to the inner workings of the club . As much as I appreciate many of the things that Wenger did I felt that towards the end of his tenure , more than anything else , he was becoming very vain and more concerned with his legacy than what was happening at the time .
Producing this documentry is more about him than anything else and I don’t think that either this or the Granada fly on the wall series will be of any good to the club .
I fear that both insights will be used against the club by a predatory media fueling internet outrage and damaging the club in the long term.
