France Football claim #Arsenal could turn to Thomas Tuchel if he is dismissed by PSG. The club admire his modern approach, creative attacking football & ability to speak several languages. https://t.co/BczNf9ioEu
Anonymous football sources claim #Arsenal could turn to any frigging manager you've ever heard of however unrealistic they might be in their search for a new coach. Reports that Guardiola, stupid teeth and Simeone were scrapping over the job in the emirates car park have yet to be confirmed but are believed to be possibly true. Rumours that Rudolph the red nosed reindeer is being considered for the post are beginning to emerge as the club apparently admire his experience, team work, expert formation and ability to speak 17 languages. https://t.co/load/of/bollx
We'll get 2 or 3 weeks of being linked to every cu.nt under the sun and then about 11pm on xmas day they'll announce Arteta
You’re optimistic Jock! I’d take Arteta to be honest because we aren’t getting a proper manager, but I seriously worry they are going to go for Emery markII

Strong reports coming out of Italy that Ancellotti is going to be replaced at Napoli by Gattuso. Apparantly, Ancellotti had a massive fallout with the chairman and he (the chairman) wants him gone. It'll mean no compensation to pay. For me, right now Ancellotti is the right manager to get us organised and moving up the table. Almost perfect timing if the Arsenal board have got the bottle to appoint a world class manager.
Freddie now has more managerial experience than Arteta, and as I said before if we are going to go for inexperience then i'd rather stick with Freddie than bring in Arteta at this stage of the season.
Sources tell @David_Ornstein that Arteta is now #AFC no.1 target for the head coach position. Some people believe it is as close as being Arteta’s call. Others, on the other hand, say he still has to go through a thorough interviewing process[The Athletic Podcast] https://t.co/npMuHretUl

I like Ancelotti and wouldn't be against him being our next manager, but if we are talking about the right manager for us right now, then there is only one candidate ……….. rafa fat Spanish waiter benitez.
I listened and watched some of the build up on sky last night where him and the spitting scouser were analysing the weekends games, and benitez gave a masterclass in tactical coaching - he spoke about how one team should have adjusted to this gameplan cos they were being exploited there, and he spoke about how another team should have played narrower and more compact cos of the spaces were killing them. I listened to him and all I kept thinking was how he would be the right manager for us right now - a guy who can come in and work with what he has got, and who can adjust his tactics to build around what he has. I was very much in the allegri corner (and would still be delighted to get him), cos right now we need a tactical manager but because benitez knows this league, I would opt for him as the right choice at this moment of time
Ancelotti and Rafa for me 100%. Both have the experience of the premier league and have been managers for years. I though we should have replaced wenger with Ancelotti.

Uncanny!
Wait a minute is that George's fabled magic hat that he's wearing and how on earth did Arteta get his hands on it
If his bird wants a seat in the clock end there's a spare next to me - she looks a lot more entertaining than the footy usually is
Paulo Sousa is present on #AFC’s 3-man shortlist to replace Unai Emery. The Gunners are carefully studying this option following encouraging spells with Fiorentina and Bordeaux. He has a €2m release clause that could be negotiated and agreed at €1.5m [@TuttoMercatoWeb]
L’Equipe, Cadena COPE, ESPN FC are all reporting that Marcelino has been in London this week to hold face-to-face talks with Arsenal regarding the head coach position. https://t.co/dxp2iVGCm8
