Life after Wenger | Ornstein: Arsenal set to appoint Unai Emery

[Gervais]

Slightly concerned about the lack of vouching for a Howe-Henry co-managerial role with Tony Adams as the Director of Football, tbqh.

 

[carlito'sway]

get Ranieri,
he is for free,
he is cheap,
he will win us the leage out of noting next year,
he will extend contracts with Özil and Sanchez,
we will struggle against relegation after that,
but i dont care after winning the leage

Dilly Ding, Dilly Dong, Arsenal Champion.

 

[GDeep™]

Low and Pellegrini actually got votes ffs

Would be hard a more unproven trio!

 

[Furious]

Ranieri is free, the Leicester crew who wanted the tactical genius last season are nowhere to be seen. I wonder why.

 

[Ceballinhos]

For those who wants Poch I don't get them.

He's basically a cheap version of Wenger when he wasn't rubbish like he is this past few years.

Tottenham choked even more than us last year in the championship.
This year they chocked too and now they won't be able to catch Chelsea.

They choke even more than us in Europe. They're getting out against la Gantoise

 

[Prawn Sandwich]

Getting Allegri or Simeone would be a appointment which shows a lot of intent.

I really wish I could see into the future to know who we eventually go for after Wenger, even if it was in 2020, I am extremely optimistic/concerned/interested!

Dream summer: Bin Özil and Ramsey off to the moon for all I care. They should fetch 60 million between them at worst.
Bring in Allegri to manage and put 80 million down for Dybala.
Bring in Gaya, Kouliabaly and Isco and switch to a back 5.
Bring back Sneezy.

Sanchez ----- Dybala
Isco
Xhaka/Coq--- Wilshere/Ox
Gaya--- Kos ---Mustafi ---Koulibaly--- Bellerin
Szczesny​

With the sales of Özil and Ramsey I reckon that's a net spend of somewhere around 150 million max which this club absolutely is capable of. That team with Allegri managing should be disciplined defensively and deadly going forward.

i would take ranieri tbf

Yeah agreed that Pellegrini is a fantastic manager for a club in transition but is yet to prove that he can actually lead a team to the title.

I don't however buy into the whole belief he is a choker though, he has done a phenomenal job and don't have any idea how he'd do with a side that actually had a realistic shot at winning things.

 

[Impact]

Any move post-Wenger should include a change in structure. Should create a Sporting Director/Director of Football role and target someone like Monchi at Sevilla. And create an environment that facilitates the addition of ex-players to the coaching staff. Likes of Vieira, Henry, Keown etc should still be around in some capacity. Off and on the field, Bayern are a club to learn from.

Tissue material right here.

Also, completely agree with binning off Özil and R*msey.

Interesting post. Couple of comments : A Xhaka/Isco/Wilshere present one serious issue: lack of pace. These three guys are pretty slow, we need some pace in MF.
I would not mind a back 3 (or 5), I tend to believe that Mustafi would fare better in back 3. He is a front foot/ open space type of defender and could flourish in that system.
Gaya may be already out of reach. PSG is apparently close to get him.
NO to Chez. Let the bygones be bygones. He is not much better than when he was at AFC.

 

[say yes]

Ranieri

Dream summer
Diego Simeone or Bielsa new coach

Szczensy comes back and Cech stays, Szcz has maured and is even open enough to learn
I am down with your back three
But would go Riccardo Rodriquez for LB

Xhaka and Coq CDMs
Ramsey Özil AMs

and Sanchez striker

 

[Hunta]

Assuming we sell Alexis and Özil, and Wenger leaves.

What budget does the new man get? Reckon Howe would get a fiver.

After looking to newest financial results Tim reckons:
If new manager's hands won't be tied behind his back...

On paper this looks great! But in reality this is a very very weak team. Where's the brut force that every top side needs to win trophys I just see it with two players up top who are under 6ft

Especially because we have a lot of possible players to offload, we should be looking at upwards of 115 million to work with. That should be enough for Mbappe
