Burnley manager Sean Dyche has claimed that Arsene Wenger is a "legend of the game" ahead of Saturday's meeting with Arsenal at Turf Moor.
Dyche admits that the Gunners boss is one of the coaches he looks up to in the Premier League, and he is pleased to see the Frenchman silencing his critics with their impressive form since the turn of the year.
"Massive credit to Arsene Wenger for the form they are in, he is a legend of the game," he told reporters. "The last couple of seasons he seems to have been questioned, but the perception doesn't always tally up with what he does there.
"He is a fantastic manager – you only have to look at the success they have had down the years, the way they play, and the business and financial side of the club.
"As a young manager I'm still learning, but I look at people like that and think it's unbelievable what he has achieved."
Arsenal will arrive at Turf Moor on the back of seven successive league wins.
