It is exactly 20 years since the run-in to the 1997/98 season, when we won 10 games in a row to snatch the Premier League title from under the noses of Manchester United.
Nigel Winterburn can still recall it vividly, and says the signings that Arsene Wenger made the previous summer - the likes of Marc Overmars and Emmanuel Petit - helped create an unstoppable force.
"I always say that it is one of the best teams that I played in terms of its power and its ability to play," the legendary left-back told Arsenal Player.
"But not only that, when it wasn't going so well we could usually tough it out and get a result.
"Arsene's first signings were absolutely sensational, and people forget about the likes of Christopher Wreh as well who came in and got important goals.
"He didn't play a massive role [with the number of games he played], but in terms of what we achieved, he played a huge part as well."
