Good Win.. 1 of 4
He wasn?t just the Greatest Manager of all time but was a Great Gentleman and Modern manager. He change Arsenal and made them grandly untouchable and invincible.
The first manager to break the monopoly of football held by the Northern and Midland clubs and made folks in the South happy. As my Dad always mention, during the War he brought smile to the face of millions during the days of recession and long dole queues. For what he did Arsenal were called the pride of London and were seen as a symbol of the prosperity and privileges of London.
Sad to say some of these guys today will never have been in his team. He demands loyalty from his players for what the club had done for them
