Arsène Wenger, manager of Arsenal

The 2003–04 season was the 109th in the history of Arsenal Football Club. It began on 1 July 2003 and concluded on 30 June 2004, with competitive matches played between August and May. The club ended the Premier League campaign as champions without a single defeat – a record of 26 wins and 12 draws. Arsenal fared less well in the other competitions, eliminated in the FA Cup to Manchester United and UEFA Champions League to Chelsea in the space of a week. 34 different players represented the club in five competitions and there were 15 different goalscorers. Arsenal's top goalscorer was Thierry Henry, who scored 39 goals in 51 games.
