Dragan Stojkovic is rumoured to have been earmarked, apparently he's a mini-Wenger. Spookily also currently managing the club in Japan Wenger did before he joined us.

I understand the clubs self-sustaining policy, it's rammed down our throats enough times, but I really hope when Wenger does leave, the club back the new manager with some funds even if it means taking a hit on the profits for one year. The new guy has to be given a chance to compete. Wenger spent some relatively large amounts during his first 4-5 years to build his team, so hopefully that is the case for his successor.
Not really a concern i mean SAF is having a say to who will suceed him, so don't see the problem with wenger doing the same. Don't mean the new manager will be a Wenger clone etc. Its The board who will have he final say anyways.
