They're grown men. They can sort out of their differences.Quote:

If they want to steady the ship then it has to be Ancelotti. Has the pedigree for a big role.Quote:

Vieira and Wenger have a fractured relationship I hear and yet Wenger still recommends him (always looking after his sons), so yes perhaps Tuchel and Sven can just be men about it.
You'd think the club has somebody lined up before the announcement.
I don't want Ancelotti, I'd prefer somebody younger and frssher.Quote:

Gazidis press conference at 5pm.
Possibility of the new guy being named? Or is that just wishful thinking.

Come on Wenger, don't ruin your send off by pushing your replacement on us.
Same here. I think he's past it.Quote:

Seems wishful thinking at this stage. They'll want to give Wenger some time to bow out respectfully and given Wenger's pointed comments about Viera, it seems to suggest that the board haven't come up with a name just yet. Either way I'll be tuning it.Quote:

New name being speculated by the media, some bloke called Arsene Smith. Don't know anything about him.Quote:

BFG to take over in a few years :bow:.
Daily Mail has an exclusive saying that Luis Enrique is in advanced talks to be new manager. Apparently Raul recommended him.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/foo...nd-season.html
Not totally aghast and better than some of the other names but fuck it, we really could do better than him.
I wouldn’t rule out Yahiro Kazama.
Pity Joey Barton has been snapped up. he could have got the players in line or showed them how to gamble.
If talk about Rodgers becomes serious i'll be joining the 'we want Wenger back' brigadeQuote:

I have had a really good think about this and I personally want Jardim of Monaco to become our new boss. I think he is a realistic appointment. Admittedly he has never managed a big club but he is a winner, has an impeccable track record with promoting / developing young players to a high level, and seems to get the best out of established / experienced players.
The team he built last season at Monaco was a joy to watch, absolute quality in every single area of the team.
He did very well at Sporting Lisbon too prior to his time at Monaco.
He also won the league where PSG shit on everyone. I would have him as 2nd choice behind Allegri. I spoke to my Barca supporting mates last night and they said that Enrique isn’t a coach, he is more like a manager. They also said that he tinkers too much and cost them vital games when he changed things for no reason and failed to spot weaknesss in the team.
Totally agree along with Allegri by far the best choice.Quote:

Jardim or Allegri would be great. Paddy V would be my 3rd choice as a bit of a wild card.
Wonder what will happen to Bouldy, by all accounts he hasn't been given much responsibility under Wenger so maybe he'll get another chance under a new boss. The rest of Wenger's cronies (Colbert, Peyton, Primoric) can do one though.
Mad Jens should be promoted. Wouldn't be against bringing in another legend to the coaching staff as well.
Think the new manager will bring in his own assistant unless it's an Arteta or Paddy who will probably be happy with Bould.
If a top manager comes in then maybe Bould can be made defensive coach and he can stick to what he's good at, and be actually allowed to coach the defence.
Wouldn't put too much stock in any lists at the moment.
I'm certain the only reason why Rodgers name is being touted and is one of the favourites is because all his cronies/friends/mates in the media are constantly mentioning his name. Probably so when he actually he gets the West Ham or Palace job next year, their fans will seem grateful.
Primoric I think kind of already stepped down last year. Peyton needs to fuck off though ..... seriously. I'm convinced he's the reason why our GK's have been so calamitous and why someone like Woijech ended up regressing despite showing so much promise early on and why Cech looks like a shadow of his former self.Quote:

Will be interesting to see what Wenger does next.
He spoke about going until Fergie's age and that he still has fuel left in the tank, and I think there's a part of him that feels betrayed and wants to prove us wrong. I can see him managing France or going to another club, but will he go to PSG? He has lambasted oil money and taken a moral stance against it over the years, so it would be ironic and hypocritical for him to end up there. At the same time, the PSG job is the only top job I can see there being for him.
I just hope he writes that much talked about "book". Would definitely buy and read that.
Not that he needs the money but he could probably live of the money he makes off it as I'm sure most gooners would be interested in it.
Definitely. Obviously every person has their own take but would love to know his thoughts about what has gone on, especially over the last 10 years or so.Quote:

It has been all Wenger making the decisions, whereas anyone that takes it now is more likely to only have coaching to focus on.
That is true. Which has made me think hard as to how Rodgers would get on. His transfer business was awful at Liverpool, he wasted £200m, but here he would have SAS to guide him. However, my other main issue with Rodgers is he doesn't train the defence; some of those Liverpool defensive performances were peak Arsenal banter years.Quote:

True, ultimate cavalier football was Liverpool 13/14 and eventually it cost them.
I just don't like Rodgers, there's something extremely disingenuous about him. I know it's a running joke on Redcafe comparing him to David Brent but it does hold resonance.
I hope he goes nowhere near the France job, want France to get a decent manager, last one was the Lemerre, since then it's been a succession of calamities and Wenger if chosen would be the next. Not good enough for France, a top manager will be able to get a lot of this group, Wenger doesn't fit into that group.Quote:
