Wenger toasts Arsenal’s Fab display

CESC FABREGAS epitomises everything Arsene Wenger stands for so it was perfectly fitting that the Spain midfielder should lead the celebrations of the Frenchman’s 13th anniversary as manager of Arsenal.

Not only that, he also gave further credence to Wenger’s claims that his young squad are growing into men capable of lifting the Premier League title this season.

Such a success would be the perfect way to celebrate Wenger becoming the club’s longest serving manager. If Wenger is quick to remind everyone that there was no red carpet laid out for him when he arrived on October 1, 1996, half of north London would be red all over if he were to deliver the club’s first title for over four years. If they can sustain this kind of attacking menace and solve their defensive blips, they are genuine contenders.
