Perhaps, but he is still the best manager.
http://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/2896/...l-roles-reportArsene Wenger has turned down the opportunity to manage both Arsenal and France, but would not rule out such a role in the future, according to L'Equipe.
Following Laurent Blanc's resignation after a disappointing Euro 2012 campaign, Wenger is said to have been approached by the president of the French Football Federation, Noel Le Graet, with regards to the position.
The newspaper claims that, although the Gunners coach declined the offer, he has left his options open regarding potentially assuming a dual role at some point in the future.
The FFF's first choice, Didier Deschamps, has also reportedly rejected the chance to take over and now Montpellier manager Rene Girard has also dismissed reports linking him to the vacant post.
Between 2002 and 2008 Girard took charge of the national team at various youth levels, including four years with Les Bleus' Under-21 side, but he is unwilling to resume working with the national administration.
"I know the house [the national set-up]. They made me go, there is no reason that I would want to return," he told RMC Sport.
Girard guided Montpellier to their first-ever Ligue 1 title last season and the club will compete in the next edition of the Champions League.
Current Oman coach Paul Le Guen and Francis Smerecki have been suggested by L'Equipe as other possibilities to take on the role but it is also speculated that Le Graet could take longer to make an appointment.
Your country needs you, Wenger. Dont let them down
swap blanc for wenger.
Would be a decent swap.
Blanc did very well with Bordeaux and went on a 25 odd match undefeated run with France after the shocker of a World Cup they had.
Would take him here
To be honest, I'd swap a rubber duck for Wenger at the moment, the duck wouldn't be able to make as many bizarre decisions and couldn't be any worse tactically surely?
Can a rubber duck handle a wet, windy, wintry night at the Britannia? Ah, yeah.
You'd say the same if Fergie was the Manager with Maureen as your assistant.

Wenger's bascially done fuck all from 2005 till now. All the 'bright' prospects we had left, all the world class players we did have left, and our squad looks like shit even with the 2 new signings, who's to say they'll not end up like Chamakh ? Look at our goalkeepers , all of them we've had since Lehmann have failed, and are all available for free to other clubs, even Sczenczny has shown that he's overhyped with his displays at the end of the season and in the Euros. We are a selling club, and will probably sell RVP to City as they'll offer the most money.
