#3 He's still good at developing youth
Give Arsene Wenger good young players to work with and he is still capable of developing them and turning him into solid first-team squad members.
In recent years, Hector Bellerin has become a reliable performer at right-back or right wing-back, wide forward Alex Iwobi has provided some good contributions and is starting to add more consistency to his game, while Ainsley Maitland-Niles and Rob Holding have also been eased into the first year over the last year or so.
In the upper reaches of the Premier League table, it is only really Mauricio Pochettino at North London rivals Tottenham Hotspur who shows similar faith in young talent.
Wenger’s ability to bring through and develop academy graduates or promising youngsters purchased from elsewhere will be key if Arsenal are to again compete with their more heavily moneyed rivals in both England and Europe.
