Arsene Wenger was compared today to Che Guevara for his revolutionary impact at Arsenal by former player Luis Boa Morte.

The Frenchman last week announced he would leave the club at the end of the season after 22 years in charge, during which time he won three Premier League titles and seven FA Cups, and guided his "Invincibles" to the only unbeaten season in English top-flight history in 2004.

"I'm surprised, and I'm sad about it," said the former Portuguese international Boa Morte, who was brought to England as a 19-year-old by Wenger in 1997.

"He's a revolutionary. He's like Che Guevara because he created a revolution at Arsenal.

"He created unbelievable things and I don't know who else will come along and do what he did, winning the league without a defeat. The impossible became possible. Let's see who will come next."
