There is only one Arsene Wenger

Bawse.

Faith in this man has been sorely tested and I have certainly had my doubts but Arsene Wenger just continues to impress with the undying commitment to his style of football and his principles of how to achieve it. He has suffered a series of unbelievable situations in recent times that might undo another manager but the signs are very good that he is in the midst of a quite remarkable turnaround. All of the players that have come in over the summer have shown at the very least glimpses of quality, some have stood out with excellent performances, and  others have shown remarkable growth since last season.

Through it all he has maintained a level of class and dignity that is a credit to him and the club. The players appear to be playing for each other again. A grittiness has returned. We can be proud of the efforts we see every week. We can look forward to the matches again. These things are down to the manager. He deserves a great deal of continued support and respect for surviving such an awful start and for building the side back up after some massive departures. Let's get behind him and the team and see how far we can go this season.
