I echo some of the opinions in the opening few posts of this thread. Not much can be accredited to Roberto Di Matteo's successes (if, indeed, he does prevail in the FA Cup and Champions League) when it's clear as day that the players are putting that much more effort in under him. Under AVB, they were embarrassing. This is what compels me to side with AVB over Di Matteo as a potential successor to Wenger. With a lack of egos at AFC, I'm sure AVB would do a good job here.
