Arsene Wenger was born in Alsace in 1949 and was a successful manager in France and Japan before unexpectedly being appointed manager of Arsenal in 1996, where he enjoyed unmatched success. He resigned in 2018 and is now Chief of Global Development for FIFA. He lives in London and Paris.
A well-paced and well-thought-out account of one of football's most
iconic and influential figures, and entirely befitting of its
remarkable author
*Sports Gazette*
A predictably brilliant insight into the mind of a man who has long
treated football as a matter of, as he puts it, "life and death".
His wit, empathy and unwavering principles have been common
knowledge for decades, but never has his all-consuming dedication
and obsession been on clearer display
*Esquire*
Opaqueness has never been this refreshing. It's honestly nice that
this book has just been about the game and the human connections he
made along the way. The moments that made Wenger, the good times
and the achievements. In a world of sensationalism, public spats
and calling out old foes, we can all learn something from that
*FourFourTwo*
As with his approach to on-field matters, this book puts in an
impressive performance
*RTE*
A surprisingly honest self-portrait of an obsessive, driven man,
who decided that the game really could be beautiful, and was
prepared to sacrifice himself to that belief
*TLS*
