Arsène Wenger, Arsenal’s longest-serving and most successful-ever manager, is to step down from his job at the end of the season after 22 years at the helm. Some Arsenal fans will be cheering in sheer delight, however, this is a bold statement that I believe you didn't expect to witness from a Manchester United fan, but Arsenal football club will never find a more loyal manager than Arsene. He should be saluted as arguably one of the finest managers in the history of the premier league.

The 68-year-old Frenchman will leave at the end of the season after nearly 22 years at the club, 12 months before his latest contract was due to expire. Former Manchester United boss Ferguson paid tribute to his "professionalism, talent and determination".

Ex-Gunners striker Thierry Henry said Wenger leaves "an untouchable legacy".

Wenger has won three Premier League titles, an all-time record seven FA Cups, two doubles, reached the 2006 European Cup final and went the entire 2003-04 Premier League season undefeated, but has faced opposition over recent seasons at the repeated failure to challenge for either the Premier League or Champions League.

."I am pleased he has announced he is leaving at this stage of the season as he can now have the send-off that he truly deserves," said Ferguson, who won 13 league titles in 26 years at Old Trafford, before retiring in 2013.

"He is, without doubt, one of the greatest Premier League managers and I am proud to have been a rival, a colleague and a friend to such a great man.

"It is great testament to his talent, professionalism and determination that has been able to dedicate 22 years of his life to a job that he loves."

His stats and his accolades will be remembered as a part of history in many years to come, I think whoever he decides to manage next would be one lucky football club.

I know it's too soon to be talking about replacing this legend but who do you replace Arsene with is the question?
