Arsene-Wenger-picture-special-Sportsmail-marks-Arsenal-manager-s-return-Monaco-Champions-League-showdown









Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger returns to familiar surroundings on Tuesday night although it's a long, long time since he was in the Stade Louis II. 
Wenger managed Monaco between 1987 and 1994 - landing the Ligue 1 title in his first season and adding the French Cup a few years later - and his old club stand between the Gunners and a place in the Champions League quarter-finals.
The team from the principality lead 3-1 after storming the Emirates three weeks ago and with the second leg set up to be a cracker, we've produced this picture special to mark the occasion and celebrate the early days of Wenger's career as a boss.
Monaco was Wenger's second club after a three-year spell at Nancy. He also managed Nagoya Grampus Eight in Japan after Monaco and moved to Arsenal in 1996.
