Arsene Wenger in no mood to look back

Arsene Wenger was keen to look ahead as his 20th anniversary as Arsenal manager was toasted ahead of tomorrow’s Premier League trip to Burnley.

The 66-year-old reaches a landmark two decades in charge of the Gunners today and chairman Chips Keswick presented the Frenchman with a crystal vase to mark the occasion ahead of his weekly press conference.

Wenger is often credited with ushering in a change of approach to the English game when he arrived at Highbury from Japanese side Grampus Eight as a relatively unknown manager.
