Synopsis

A new, updated and expanded edition of the bestselling, seminal book of Arsenal during Arsene Wenger's reign, with four new chapters covering the club's progress up to the end of the 2016 summer transfer window. Described by The Observer as "fascinating" and The Guardian as "shrewd and well-informed", respected football magazine When Saturday Comes said of Arsenal: The Making of a Modern Superclub, "at last a football book that reflects the age".

Based on unprecedented access granted to the authors, including exclusive interviews with Arsene Wenger and key Board members, current and former players, Arsenal looks in detail at the club's transformation into a global superpower under the stewardship of their French manager and what has gone wrong over the last few years. The book analyses the state of the club, both on and off the pitch, and the authors give their opinions on what needs to be done by the Manager and the Board to keep Arsenal at the very top of the sport.

"Alex Fynn is a football guru, and I'm always interested to hear what he has to say." Arsene Wenger

"A shrewd and well-informed book about the challenges and terrors of a club still in the throes of transformation."
Kevin McCarra, The Guardian
