    Exactly! Nobody raves about him, even though he's probably the best manager in the history of football and a sexy bastard too.

    All the more reason why we should be considering him. I think he wants a new challenge and chance to prove himself. Build his own legacy.

    He inherited a beast of a team but he also pushed them to win everything in that period and dominated football whilst he was there. Look at the team Mourinho has with Real and what he had at Chelsea. He wasn’t able to do it at that level and he’s struggling at Real Madrid now to push for the title. It’s not easy to keep champions hungry and that’s why he deserves some credit. I want him at Arsenal because he’d bring some discipline and pride back to our style of play. Besides the pretty football, he won’t accept lazy defending and subpar performances from players week in week out. It also helps that he’s from the Barca system and would be able to provide some input on how we need to go forward as club if we want to depend on our youth system.

    valid points mate. i am just not sure if i want us to be his 1st real test. trying to take a team devoid of any winning mentality and try and then turn us into winners. what if he was just about the barca players and system. can we afford to take a punt on him and then find out after 2 years he isnt actually a great manager after all. he just had super players that already knew how to play super football. we are definately a challenge for him, thats for sure.

    my vote is still for Klopp but he wont take the step down. i would also have ancellotti over him too.

    I've been considering starting an affair with a top, top super model but I can't choose which one to go for.

    apart from maybe mourinho, who is looking increasingly like some sort of bloated bag-eyed whale beached on the madrid bench every weekend, who will guarantee success? whoever comes after wenger will be a gamble. not only because it is a brave new world for us fans but they are more than likely virgins to the game in the UK and will also have to contend with all the off field bollocks PLUS wenger sitting above their head as a director.

    Plus the fact Wenger will not allow the to coach the defence.

    someone who has experienced coaching in diff environments. i wasnt asking for maureen. just someone with a bit more experience. someone who maybe has had to deal with some bad moments. someone who has been to a club where he is not already ingrained into their history. somewhere where he has to push through his ideas and see if they can be succesful or develop new ideas. whomever comes after wenger will be a gamble for sure but is there a need to take an extra risk at someone like pep who has had one of the easiest rides in coaching so far?
