    Aye. Let's hope he fixes Central Midfield and Central Defence, he has no time for sentiment and being buddies with some of our existing lot. If you are not good enough you are out, that's the kind of mentality and reputation he needs to set the minute he walks through the door.

    Im very skeptical about Arteta, he might have potential (Pep wouldnt have hired him as his number 2 if he wasnt any good) but no way is he ready for a job like this.
    Oh I agree, I would be a lot more comfortable with Unai Emery or even Carlo Ancelotti to steady the ship before we go for Arteta or Vieira or someone like that.

    I really can't understand the rush for Arteta and why they'd pass up on so many candidates eligible for the role with way more experience. They must know something.

    Or it's an absolute determination never to see a manager gain so much control at the club again. Maybe the new role will be so limited the big, experienced names wouldn't go for it.

    Make no mistake, the new guy is going to be the coach, not the manager in the traditional sense.

    It's not just Wenger leaving, it's a complete change in management structure. This is where Gazidis earns his money.
    NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.

    Thats what i think as well. The new structure means we are hiring a head coach, someone who can train, motivate and organise a team. The big bosses are either unavailable or not interested in the job for various reasons.

    Sounds like Mislintat's already taking care of it, and not waiting around for the new guy. I like this new way of doing things...

    And if that's the way it's going I think we'll be better off. It will make it so much easier to get rid of non-performing managers and it will allow good coaches to get on with what they are best at without worrying about all the other stuff. It makes sense and gives the new guy a realistic chance of making a go of it. Trying to replace Wenger's role (Lord of all he surveys) would have been a non-starter.
