Never happen, Roman would never let that happen.

Good point.
Would be quite hilarious if Rafa gets sacked before the end of the season. The LOL factor would be off the fucking charts.

Yeah I doubt Chelsea fans would accept a manager with such limited ambitions as Wenger. At the same time I don't think Wenger would accept the job since he likes football clubs to be run like small businesses.
fair enough. going by your responses i think its fair to say that you no longer look the more attractive option between the two clubs.
arsenal fans banging on about trophies and investment at chelsea being the better option need to wake up a little and see the road it has taken you down too.
You gotta feel a bit sorry for old Arsene. The haters will bang on about a cushy life on £7m a year but it is MUCH harder to stay at one club for 15yrs compared to being an impact manager like Mourinho who moves on every couple of seasons. Arsene had many offers to leave for bigger and better things when he was hot property but he stayed out of loyalty (cynics would argue he stayed because it was the easy option and he'd have been found out at a big club - I think that's a cheap shot but we'll never know).
Arsene should have moved on 5 years ago. He would certainly of had a better 5yrs but I don't think Arsenal would have done.
I don't think that's entirely fair. Investment and wanting trophies aren't the reason Chelsea are in a quagmire. We are in a mess cos our owner seems to be a petulant person with the patience of a child who interfers in shit he shouldn't and then gets upset with others when his interference causes things to go tits up.
If you have an owner who is a bit more patient and doesn't get in the managers way but sets firm goals then things can go well.
usually the alternative of chelsea's approach has been suggested as proof to why your fans are a lot happier with your lot but what i'm getting is that along with that, you've got an owner who can ruin that in a drop of a hat, as he seems intent on doing atm. i've no problem with the investment part - as it takes more than that to win things - but what i was saying is that all is far from rosy in your garden right now and it provides food for thought for those thinking having an owner similar to ambro is a guaranteed route to sustained success. worryingly, it seems as if man city's owners have got their heads screwed on and are not using the club for some sort of personal adventure.
This isn't why you're in a 'mess' this is the reason you've been very successful for the past ten years.
