This thread smells of wee.
NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.
The 'who' has been mentioned countless times here. Whether you like those name or not is your personal choice but there are many fishes in the sea. Wenger is just an ordinary fish we give too much importance to. And yes, there is no 100% guarantee someone else will do better.. there is always risk-reward in every decision and at this point, replacing wenger is well worth the risk. In fact, it shouldve happened many years ago... still better late than never!
Arsene Wenger, the only football manager that got paid 8 million quid to do nothing but sit on his arse..
Yesterday you stated you didn't have to suggest an alternative, so why does anyone else? Mourinho is a worthless suggestion. It'll never happen. Pick one from the many managers you do know. If you say no-one can do better then that is such a limited point of view and a damning indictment of out club. This discussion is not about who would guarantee us the league - no-one can do that. It is about who could offer more with not only the players currently at the club but the vast resources available.
They don't have to. I'm just saying it's not as simple as 'Wenger out'. That's only half of it, and it's the easy bit. The 'who in' is the difficult part.
I'm not saying no-one could do better than Wenger. I am saying that I reckon a lot of managers would do worse.
It's perfectly valid to want Wenger out and not know who we should replace him with but it makes no sense at all to replace him with someone who would do worse. Obviously we don't really know who anyone else would do. Personally I'd have taken 3rd and winning the Cup at the start of the season, if that's what happens then I'll be content enough. Obviously I want us to be pushing on for the title, I actually think we're close to a squad which can. Questions remain about whether we have a manager who can. Let's face it, he's going to be here next season whatever you or I think but with the squad he's got now there's no excuse for not challenging next season.
If Wenger was gone at the end of the season (not going to happen) then my first choice would be Carlo Ancelotti who i think is going to get the push from Real Madrid.
Hard to know who will be availiable in two years time...Thomas Tuchel who has just taken over at Dortmund from Klopp will be worth watching, as will Klopp himself who i can see replacing Ancelotti at Real Madrid. Simeone is another Mourinho type manager, as well as Atletico Madrid did last season they were thoroughly boring to watch most of the time.
Guardiola may be an option for us but he is just as likely to be an option for one of the two Manchester clubs as well (Van Gaal won't be there more than another two seasons). But to be honest the Board should be looking in the next six months to get a new man in, where as you imagine they will try and convince Wenger to sign on for another three years.
