Among the more incredible aspects of Arsene Wenger's 19-year spell in charge of Arsenal is the simple fact that he's never finished below Tottenham Hotspur. This dominance of north London is well documented and therefore somewhat taken for granted, yet it remains an astonishing, almost unprecedented, record.
There's an argument that Arsenal fans have focused too much upon this rivalry in recent years, almost as a substitute for the lack of honours they became accustomed to since Wenger's early days. But consistently finishing ahead of Spurs, a team who have enjoyed sporadic waves of promise over the past decade, shouldn't be underestimated.
