The French coach, though, takes no notice of any personal milestones as he looks to guide the Barclays Premier League leaders safely through the toughest of all the Champions League qualifying groups."A good game for me is the best present," said Wenger, whose side have won both of their Group F matches so far, most impressively when beating Napoli 2-0 at home earlier this month.
"I get cards, phone calls but, honestly, if nobody reminds me I forget.
"It was always like that. Even when I was 25 or 30, I never thought of it as a special day, but people remind you.
"I don't want them (the players) to play (just) for my birthday.I want them to enjoy playing together. If i can enjoy it as well,it is even better."
Wenger has indicated he is willing to pen a contract extension, with negotiations on-going, but shows no signs of slowing down."You will see when you are 64, what is amazing in life is that you don't change," he said."Also you never believe you are 64, and when you are 50 you don't believe you are 50.
"The only thing that is good is that internally you are still young, externally you become old.",he said.Happy Birthday to Baba Ijebu.
