Mostly Caviar but doesn't forget the Sausages

95 minutes is obviously not enough to cover a 22-year reign so the film focuses on the Invincibles season interspersed with Wenger's early life and coaching career, arrival in London and departure. So there's no mention of the 2005 Champions League Final, the 2007/08 Eduardo leg-break and title heartbreak, and much more. Notable are:

The old footage (including some behind the scenes stuff I'd not seen before) and stories of Wenger's arrival and early years at Arsenal, including a shamefully xenophobic and nasty welcome from some of the British public and media.

Legends like Vieira, Henry, Pires and Wenger himself rewatching and reliving the big moments from the Doubles, Invincibles and Battle Royale with Man Utd. As an Arsenal these were spine-tingling but most neutral fans will enjoy some of these classic moments.

Respect to Alex Ferguson for being very generous with his praise of Wenger; the rivalry was bitter back in the day, but there is now mutual respect.

Balanced - I expected it to be more one-sided but Dixon, Keown, Wright and others weren't afraid to point out Wenger's failings in the Stage Two and Three eras.

Loyalty - the respect from players like Vieira, Henry and Petit is clear to see.

Wenger - the first time I've seen him suggest he stayed too long and (maybe with the benefit of more time passing his departure) he shows more introspection, warmth and humour than in last year's bland autobiography.

Sadness at the way it ended, and some of the abuse he received.

Key quote - "We left our soul at Highbury".

Arsène Wenger: Invincible

A fascinating film about the legendary Arsenal manager, and my respect for him only increased after watching.

It perhaps would have been nice to have had more time dedicated to things like the relief he felt after that famous 2014 FA Cup win, or the pain of the 2006 Champions League Final defeat, that really heralded the break-up of the Invincibles team.

On the whole a lovely film though, and we'll be lucky to ever have a manager of his ilk again.

Really liked it, but something was missing.

This is one of those docs that you keep the rivalries aside for and watch it for Arsène and the work he's done at Arsenal.

If you watch football, you should watch this - but it doesn't really have anything you already may not know. It's well made and offers some perspective from other legends on Arsenal's glory days under Wenger and the downfall after moving out of Highbury.

I did feel like there was something missing though. I thought Balon's doc on The Invincibles had SO MUCH more content. This doc was supposed to be that and then some more because this is about Arsene and The Invincibles are only a part of this journey. The doc really kicks off about halfway in, after his declaration to go undefeated but until then, I thought they missed the opportunity to say so much more about him and his journey prior to ARS. They do touch upon it but I thought there would be more. Compare this against Fergie doc with content prior to the treble, the storytelling was so much better.

But, regardless, by the end of the doc, you leave with more respect for the man and some life lessons for folks to takeaway. Respect and credit where it's due!
