Oh I think making Arteta head coach would be setting him up to fail
But Brendan Rodgers??? Jesus
Jardim and Low would both be on my list

:lol: Fair enough.
I thought you were one of the "Hey, he was a brilliant player for us so would definitely be a brilliant manager for us".
Always think that's silly logic, have you seen Adams' attempts at management?!
Brendan Rodgers shouldn’t be aware on our list. But if they made that appointment, at least they’re being honest about our ambitions as a club. :lol: Arteta or Henry would be a con job and we’ll all fall for it.
I was once in favour of Low but he’s been an international for far too long. It’s well over a decade.
I still think Simeone is the one I’d pick. I know Atleti are quite a pragmatic team but let’s not pretend as though the football we play now is in any way better. I’m sure we’d all be a little more accepting of whatever style we played as long as we were getting results and subsequently were able to defend better and also foster a winning mentality from it. Plus he’s a warrior and you can’t help but feel like that’s something our club really lacks.
He hasn’t had millions to work with and he’s used to competing against teams with twice the budget anyway, so it wouldn’t be much different here in terms of the landscape of the league. Also going back to the style of football, with the money we have and the select few quality players we do have, I don’t think we’d even need to be as pragmatic as Atleti, he could marry his defensive tactics with our wider selection of attackers to create the best of both worlds.

The fans, the club, the players like Vladimir and Estragon just killing time, going through the motions waiting for it to happen
It being Wenger fucking off
I love that play, it’s incredibly futile and depressing and it’s a good analogy
