THE WENGER THREAD

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

ESPN report he has accepted a role with the world governing body as a technical director.
In his acceptance speech he will point out that he was offered the roles of Head of the UN, President of the US, French Ambassador to Wakanda etc but he turned them all down, and almost took the vacancy for the Queen Mother a few years ago.

Perfect role for him, he can pontificate on every matter now
There's a caveat, he'll take the job...….. "While he waits for his next role in football as a manager"

So, he'll be at FIFA until he dies.

I was hoping he would fade into obscurity as a complete football relic of irrelevance, a role at FIFA means we'll still have him pontificating. It is a worrying role because as technical director I should imagine he'll have influence in rule changes etc, just think how much of a mess of things he can make as he gets further into his dotage :banghead:

1.There MUST be 5 sideways passes and 10 backward passes before the ball is allowed to go forward.

2. A player cannot tackle if he doesn't have the ball

3. With VAR now in place we can do away with referee's and linesmen.

4. Only I can make decisions about football anytime, anywhere in the world because I am perfect and know everything.

5. I should be given a 200% salary rise every month.

Is "vacancy" a euphemism for "vagina"? :D
