After announcing his decision to leave Arsenal at the end of the season, Goal takes a look at the Frenchman's record against his longest rivals

Arsene Wenger has had some great rivals during his 22 years at Arsenal, enjoying some legendary battles against the likes of Sir Alex Ferguson and Jose Mourinho.

As he prepares to leave Arsenal at the end of the season, Wenger will depart having enjoyed a positive win record against his fellow Premier League managers more often than not.

But who does he have the best record against? And which managers has Wenger struggled to get one over on a regular basis?

Here, Goal runs down a list of Premier League managers he has met at least 15 times during his Arsenal career, along with his win percentage record.

Arsene Wenger just can’t beat Jose Mourinho.

The 'Special One' has been in Wenger’s head ever since his first day as Chelsea manager and the Arsenal boss has really struggled against the Portuguese.

Arsene Wenger's greatest rival and one of only two managers to have won more than they have lost against the Frenchman.

Wenger had one of his worst days against Ferguson’s United in 2012 when Arsenal suffered an 8-2 defeat at Old Trafford.

Ferguson beat Wenger 22 times in the 49 meetings between the pair and the managers met more times than any others in Premier League history.

Rafa Benitez’s Newcastle were the last team to beat Arsenal before Wenger announced he was resigning.

Benitez has got the better of Wenger eight times during his stints as Liverpool and Newcastle boss, and the most exciting encounter between the two managers was a 4-4 draw in 2009 at Anfield where Andrey Arshavin scored four times.

Arsene Wenger's record against managers of Arsenal's chief rivals is mixed and he was beaten five times by Houllier in 16 meetings between the two French coaches.

Wenger suffered a 4-0 loss at the hands of Houllier’s Liverpool back in December 2000.
