I knew he was going to have teams playing attacking football with many passes. He has done that, showing he will be a great coach."
    Wenger said that 5 years ago. It's hard to think why he would've changed his mind and I think Wenger will play a key role in deciding who follows him. The rest of the board haven't got a clue about the football world, that's why they rely on him so much.

    It was Gazidis who brought in Shad Forsythe and Wim Jonker, it's all dependent on what input he's allowed to have into the whole process.

    Quite a few names I wouldn't mind, most mentioned in this thread already. Simeone would be my top pick mainly because he's such a character and would weed out the lily-livered types we have in the squad. His team are fighters and I'm sure he would implement a pressing game not too dissimilar to what Poch has done at Spurs. Yeah his Atleti team are not pretty but you're unlikely to beat Real Madrid and Barcelona on just technical ability alone. Besides, our football is shit and doesn't get results anyway. So I'm not arsed really.

    Koeman would be my pick if we're talking about Prem managers. Again, I like the pressing game but also he's made some good signings, when many thought Southampton would fold when all their talent was sold off and Poch left.

    Simeone for me too, for the same reasons you mention, like you said our football is a bore to watch anyway and we've had to put up with that for years, so it'll be an improvement on what we've had to deal with either way.

    It’s been a struggle to find any enjoyment from the way we play this season. It’s boring. We need to get out of our heads that we’d be swapping attractive football for something ugly. We used to be a bit easy on the eye but we’ve morphed into something hideous like we’ve had one to many appointments with Wako Jacko’s plastic surgeon. I have no idea what Wenger has done to this team but I can’t stand to watch another season of this. It’s dire stuff. So boring and predictable to watch. It’s beyond missing out on silverware, something the pundits miss when speaking Arsenal fans being fed up.

    I’d be happy to see Simeone come in but I’m annoyed that we missed out on Klopp.

    Our football can be a bore to watch however that's not always the case, under Simeone dull football would be the intention rather than the by product of poor management.
    Arsenal have more funds avaliable to them than Atletico Madrid so we have no reason to ape how they play.

    Winning things is important and I have no problem with sacrificing creativity when necessary to get the results we need, but I think we don't need to go down the road of strangling the life out of games to be a more effective and efficient team.

    Nightmare scenario. Wenger moves upstairs and brings in one of his minions. Result, Wenger effectively remains at the helm.
