I'm not so sure. In any case I think a couple of wins and people would start cheering. Many fans are fickle like that. We've seen it happen with other clubs many times. e.g. Rooney says he wants to leave - many Man Utd fans says they don't want him playing for them and many expected him to leave. He stays, now they all love him.
He's a twat, no doubt. So are a lot of managers. He's not Joey Barton scum. He doesn't fuck clubs over like 'Arry. He doesn't make racist slurs like Aragones. He has a god complex but he's not a nasty piece of work. What's the worst thing he has done? Be a smarmy little twat in the media? I could deal with that.
My view to getting a manager like Mourinho is very different from getting a billionnaire owner in who makes this club his penis extension, like Man City or Chelsea. Then I really would find it hard to care about Arsenal. I like that we're fighting the good fight but wouldn't be against Mourinho to come in and ruffle a few feathers.
Mourinho wouldn't be my first choice at all though. The reason for that is not about him as a person - which I don't mind so much right now, but I suspect Mourinho is someone who probably doesn't give a fuck about anybody but himself. And so he wouldn't stay for very long and though he might well leave us in a better position to when he arrives, for a club looking for some stable progress, Mourinho isn't the ideal man. Although I think Maccy said something the other day about Mourinho wanting to build a dynasty. That might not be what we want either but even right now, Wenger is bigger than the club. We can't get rid of him and he's dragging us down. The important thing going for Wenger is that we know he cares, so we tolerate it.
Jürgen Klopp for next Arsenal manager. Henry as assistant manager.
