#2 Stephan Lichtsteiner (Arsenal)
Amongst other significant footballing incidents of 2017/18, the resignation of Arsenal Football Club's manager stands out. Arsene Wenger finally decided that his days at the London-based club are over and it is time for a change.
The change that the Gooners longed for with Unai Emery and a string of impressive signings, but Stephan Lichtsteiner was the first.
The Swiss international arrived from Serie A giants Juventus Football Club after his contract expired.
The 34-year-old veteran has won fourteen trophies at the Italian club and will challenge inconsistent Hector Bellerin for the right-back role.
Some fans questioned his age, but he has played 32 games for Juventus last year and did a commendable job for his country in the World Cup, which highlights the tremendous work rate of this player.
