Vieira is exclusively regarded as Wenger’s best discovery, but there remain a number of former and current players that could potentially rival him for that title.

Here are what we believe to be Wenger’s top six discoveries:
6) Freddie Ljungberg
Don't Miss:
- ‘Break club record spend or look elsewhere’ Arsenal told
- Arsenal eye player Lionel Messi claimed to be ‘similar to Xavi’
- Arsenal urged to buy ‘January transfer window bargain’ for £6m
The super Swede was one of Wenger’s first signings as a permanent manager and arrived off the back of Wenger’s first double in 1998.
Ljungberg certainly took his chance, taking his position on the right and becoming a lethal goal threat throughout his stay.
During his time with us Ljungberg won two league titles and four FA Cups, while also transforming himself into a marketing behemoth – the Swedish David Beckham!
