Arsenal: From Boring to Invincibles

After winning the league in 1991, Arsenal failed to get back to those highs for a long time. As they slowly became a cup team and were labeled as "Boring Boring Arsenal," and faced many challenges and scandals. Until an unknown foreign manager was signed to build a new dynasty at the club......

When Arsene Wenger was signed to guide Arsenal, there were many doubts surrounding the Frenchmen. However, with his new training methods and diet regimes, he has reignited a somewhat aging team and managed to win the double. The criticism has now turned into praise....

Watch as Arsene Wenger guides Arsenal or the "Gunners" as their called, back to the top of English football as they compete against Manchester United for local dominance. Boosted with players like Bergkamp, Henry, Adams, Campbell, Pires, Ljunberg, Overmars, Vieira, Cole and many many more.

"You are the reason I became an Arsenal Fan"

[nikhilraje]

The regret of losing UCL final in 2006 is infinite.
Gosh Wenger lifted this club on his shoulders

[Mosf]

As an Arsenal fan, watching this video hurts so much since we could've achieved a lot more than we did. We were runners up in so many competitions throughout the 2000s.

[Cliffhanger]

Irrespective of everything Wenger deserves respect for the sticking with the club when all his players left and when he was scapegoated for his club's failures to compete but despite the financial backing he did an amazing job every year!

[jobnyangacha]

Man Arsenal were regular winners. You know you're dominant when going undefeated over a 38-game season is a reasonable goal to go for.

[Ryan-jdnb]

That night in 2006 I literally cried myself to sleep. We were leading and just like that it all fell apart.

[Asshat]

Thank you for representing Arsenal honestly. Every non Arsenal fan just rips on them as if Wenger didn't massively overachieve. I can't imagine how good they could have been with a chelsea or united budget.

[Asshat]

For the youngsters who don't know this era of Arsenal glory - Wenger was Pep before Pep. People said their possession style couldn't hold up against English physicality. He proved them wrong. As Pep's playing career at Barca was coming to a close he called Wenger wanting to join. That's the clearest example of how influenced Pep was by Wenger's Arsenal. Unfortunately, the funding of the Emirates stadium (which was necessary because Highbury's capacity was only 38k, the rise to 60k would see matchday revenue rise by over 50%) caused the team to continually sell star players. Wenger and Arsenal dominated the transfer market in these days continually buying low and selling high to maintain top 4 an incredible 19 YEARS IN A ROW from 98-2016. Even Fergie only managed 18 in a row from 96-13.

Criminally underrated channel, may the algorithm bless you!

[stephenkoshy]

Man Fahad your docu's are serious quality. The stories themselves are captivating but the way you stitch everything up with the music, the edits, the narration etc I sit there almost hypnotised. No other video on the platform has managed to hold my attention so effectively. Huge props.

[robertdadu]

i supported arsenal from the day i joined form one in 2003 and felt in love with it, that 2006 champions leage final with barcelona still hurts me up to date, i remember how i cried and my mum was just consoling me may she rest in peace..thank you for the good memeories lads ...18 years being a fan and am still in love with this club

[josephlimo]

After watching this I think we owe Arsene Wenger an apology for thinking he was the problem after 2005/2006 seaaon. He deserves all the love and respect from us.

[rohinshingadia]

It’s here! Best football documentaries in the whole of YouTube, well presented and informative. Keep it up!

[demlanhlung]

I am lucky that I was 10 years old when I first saw the very first Arsenal game with my father, who also is a big fan. And I'm in love with this club ever since. When they became the invincibles in 2004, I was so happy. When they lost the Champions League title in 2006, I was crying like hell that night. 21 years as an Arsenal fan, I am thrilled.

[Asshat]

As much of a bummer as the post-Henry era was at times, Wenger's class is what led to Arteta falling in love with the club. The new era led by Arteta is upon us. The development of Saka(21), Odegaard (24), Martinelli (21), Saliba (22), etc., along with maintaining top of the table position makes the future look great.

[vdotme]

As painful as it is to pore over our missteps when true glory was so it's beautiful to see our story told so informatively & accurately.

[MrAizice]

I became a diehard Arsenal fan in 1997 and that defeat in the 2006 Champions League final still ranks as the most excruciating night of my life. I cried myself to sleep and my eyes were very sore the next morning.

[mariz]

Having grown up as a kid & as a teen with 1997-2008 football was the most redeeming and rewarding thing ever, something that will always play a big part of my life. Thanks for the documentary!
