Arsenal Football Club General Info
Arsenal F.C. Crest
Few football clubs in the world can match the history of Arsenal, the Premier League team based in Highbury, North London. Possessing one of the largest fan bases in the world, the club appeals as much to people all over the world as it does to those from the areas around Emirates Stadium, no doubt due in large part to the appeal of all-time leading goalscorer Thierry Henry, an Arsenal fixture from 1999 to 2007.
Arsen Wenger – Arsenal F.C. Manager.
In the illustrious history of the Red Army, no manager has coached longer or won more matches than Arsene Wenger, the French national who has been at the head of the club since 1996. A move initially met with trepidation by the local media, Wenger had to overcome the stigma of being the club’s first foreign-born manager. An attacking manager known as a purist, Wenger quickly earned the respect of former critical fans and media in his second season when he lead the Gunners to the Premier League title and won the FA Cup. A second Double followed in 2001-2002, eventually leading to one of the best seasons in the history of elite football in Europe: an undefeated season in 2003-2004, achieved only two other times at the highest level of European football. In September of 2007, Wenger signed a three-year contract to remain Arsenal’s manager.
Under the guidance of Herbert Chapman and, later, Joe Shaw and George Allison, Arsenal won five League championships and two FA cups during the 1930s, the first period of dominance for the club. However, Arsenal descended into mediocrity for several decades until a brief resurgence at the end of the 1960s that included the first European trophy in club history, the UEFA Fairs Cup in 1970.
Arsenal Stadium
For much of the club’s history, Arsenal played at Arsenal Stadium (also known as Highbury). However, reduced capacity there limited earnings and the club embarked upon designing and building a new stadium, completed in 2006. Called Emirates Stadium for its corporate sponsor, the airline company of the same name, it seats over 60,000 people, making it the fifth-largest football stadium in the United Kingdom. However, many Gooners, upset over their club selling the corporate naming rights, refer to the stadium as Ashburton Grove. A roof covers the four tiers of the stadium, but leaves the pitch exposed to the elements. Known as one of the best playing surfaces in the world, the stadium also features two giant screens to allow supporters to follow the action on the pitch.
Former player George Graham resurrected Arsenal once again after taking over in 1986, winning six titles in eight years. Using his own brand of strict discipline, Graham adjusted on the fly from an attack-oriented manager into one relying more on defensive sets, tactics that led to the first FA Cup and League Cup double in 1992-1993. Graham lost his job after accepting an illegal payment from a Norwegian agent who had handled the transfer of two players to Arsenal in 1992.
Originally based on the southeast side of London, the club now known by supporters as the Red Army began modestly as Dial Square, formed by workers at the Royal Arsenal in 1886. Five years later the team began professional play before joining the Football League in 1893. Known since 1891 as Woolwich Arsenal, the club made the First Division in 1904 before becoming bankrupt in 1910 and moving several years later to the current location in North London, dropping the Woolwich in the process.
