Arsenal FC: Pep Guardiola visited Arsene Wenger’s house ‘because he wanted to play for Arsenal’

The list of players signed by Arsene Wenger at Arsenal is full of eminent and illustrious names.
The list of players who nearly signed for Arsenal is full of even more highly acclaimed footballers.
Petr Cech, Gerard Pique, Yaya Toure, Paul Pogba, Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi are just some of the players who, at one time or another, were supposedly close to joining the north London club.
And Wenger has now revealed the name of another superstar who almost joined the Gunners - and actually visited Wenger’s house to try and convince the Frenchman to sign him!
Pep Guardiola, the Manchester City manager, was regarded as one of the finest midfielders in Europe during his playing days at Barcelona, but he never got to fulfil all his dreams as he wanted to, but never did, play for Arsenal.
Wenger revealed the amazing news in an interview with BeIN Sport, quoted by AS: “I talked to him a few times, and once he came to my house when he was a player, because he wanted to play for Arsenal.”
Wenger did not take up Guardiola’s offer, and the Spaniard went on to play for Brescia, Roma, Al-Ahli and Dorados after he left Barcelona in 2001.

Wenger wasn't signing a 31 year old back then.

Lukaku just ain't that guy, he wouldn't get 25+ a season even if debruyne was his chief assistant officer.
We'll see how good Lukaku is at the world cup, no excuses about not getting any service can be made.
He's already got over 20 goals this season mate and we still have three months left. He also scored 20+ in a season for Everton

Before Barca from 2008 on wards were known and famous for their style of playing. Arsenal were playing that same style 10 earlier in 1998 for a good decade
