Arsene Wenger stands on the brink of history on the eve of Arsenal's FA Cup Final clash with Aston Villa. Should Arsenal win at Wembley on Saturday evening the Frenchman will become the first manager post-war to lead his team to six FA Cup triumphs, and his side will be the first to win the famous old trophy a dozen times.

Currently, Wenger is tied with Manchester United's Alex Ferguson on five victories but his Arsenal side are favourites on Saturday, and if the final goes to form there will be another title to add to the ones Wenger celebrated in 1998, 2002, 2003, 2005 and 2014.
