It's impossible. If Wenger moved upstairs, I agree, he'd just be driving from the back seat. The thought of him having any input at all in transfer dealings even after he has left the manager's role (if he ever does) is truly depressing.
I'm basing the idea of recent quotes I read where he was asked about leaving, whether it would be director of football or something like that. He said he didn't know but he would stay working with the club in some capacity. Hopefully he has some empathy with the next guy and sticks to an ambassador role like Fergie.
