In his 22 year spell at Arsenal, legendary manager Arsene Wenger defeated some of the very best but arguably his oldest and toughest foe came in the form of a coat zip.
Perched on the dugout next to his trusty assistant Steve Bould, you would often spot a wild Wenger yanking at his coat like a primary school child who had lost all patience with the jacket his mum bought him for Christmas.
If you're unfamiliar with Arsene's constant struggle with a zipper then take a look at the below compilation of the Frenchman having a battle with his jacket. Never forget.

Back in 2018, the former Gunners boss opened up about the problems he had with his many, many trench coats.
"Yes, in fact I improved in that," Wenger told beIN Sports. "I was conscious of that!
"They are too long and sometimes the zip didn't work. I struggled a lot with that. But, in the end, because people were showing it I was conscious that I was under scrutiny when doing it!"
