Warnock says ex-Arsenal boss Wenger 'best Premier League has seen'

Former Cardiff City and Crystal Palace boss Neil Warnock has declared Arsene Wenger the Premier League's greatest manager.

Wenger, 70, spent over two decades with Arsenal before his departure in 2018 and has taken charge of more Premier League matches than any other manager (828).

Warnock told TalkSport: "Since the Premier League started, if I was picking my top five managers I would put Arsene Wenger at number one, only because he changed the whole outlook on modern footballers.

"He brought so many things in that had never been thought of - the nutritionists, the fitness guys, videos, technology.

"So I think Wenger changed the whole course of it when he came into the Premier League."
