Arsenal

Arsenal are a club steeped in history. Following their formation in 1886, the club have won 13 league titles, 10 FA Cups and two League Cups. While silverware has been amiss at the Emirates following Arsenal's move from Highbury in 2006, it surely won't be too long before they add a touch of sparkle to their trophy cabinet.

Manager Arsene Wenger arrived at Highbury back in 1996 and has since gone onto become the club's longest serving manager. Under the management of George Graham (1986-95), and Bertie Mee before him, Arsenal became a team of hard-knocks; they didn't play the prettiest style of football but they got the job done. 

This style did not suit Wenger, though, and the Frenchman re-invented Arsenal, turning them into the most attractive footballing side in the country.

Using his experience from working on the continent, Wenger raided his homeland of France for some of the best unknown talent out there; Nicolas Anelka, Emmanuel Petit and Patrick Viera were all early signings, while players like Tony Adams and Nigel Winterburn remained key to the team. Wenger's Arsenal side were the world's first truly globalised team.

It was this crop of players who delivered Wenger double success in 1998. After beating Manchester United to the league title by a point, they dismantled Newcastle 2-0 in the FA Cup final.

This was not to be Wenger's only taste of double success. Following the departure of Anelka and Marc Overmars, the French duo of Robert Pires and Thierry Henry were brought in. It was this dynamic duo who truly galvanised Arsenal and the Gunners romped to victory in the 2001-02 season, winning by seven clear points before beating arch-rivals Chelsea in the FA Cup.

Winning two doubles usually represents the pinnacle of any manager's career, but for Wenger these memories fade in comparison to his greatest feat: "The Invincibles". The 2003-04 season saw Arsenal make history. They did not lose a single Premier League game. The last club to pull off the same feat was Preston North End in 1889. With Henry, Pires and Viera at the height of their careers, it truly was the greatest team they have ever been able to boast.

Since the "Invincibles" era, Arsenal have not won the league and their last piece of silverware was the FA Cup in 2005. Since the glory days, notable players including Robin van Persie and Cesc Fabregas have departed the Emirates, but signs this season seem to hint at a resurgence in confidence and form at the North London club. 
Wenger is Arsenal's longest serving manager. By the end of the 2013-14 season he will have managed the club on an amazing 1000 occasions. However, not only is he their longest serving manager, he is also their undisputed greatest.
