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.
santo would be a fairly underwhelming appointment.
I can't see we would improve that much by getting him in.
Get used to that feeling buddy - under this ownership we will never again witness the appointment of "Star Manager", and all appointments will likely come from the 3rd or 4th tier of managerial quality
Well I've supported The Arsenal a long time (I'm not as old as you but still a long time) and I've never seen a Star Manager appointment, no one heard of Wenger, Graham was an unknown quantity, Ricoh no, I can't think before then but that does go back a fair way.
I can go back to Terry Neil and yes you are right. It's Redarmy that we need to ask cos he goes back to Herbert Chapman apparently
At least Kronke can use the same job advert that HC replied to in 1925
Arsenal Football Club is open to receive applications for the position of TEAM MANAGER. He must be experienced and possess the highest qualifications for the post, both as to ability and personal character. Gentlemen whose sole ability to build up a good side depends on the payment of heavy and exhorbitant [sic] transfer fees need not apply.

Spoken English would be an advantage.
Not being a bit of a spineless reenghole also an advantage.

And rightly so - all arteta has shown so far is that he can ride on peps coat-tails as good as anyone can, but he hasn't shown that he is managerial quality, and our mess demands someone who has proven experience at a high level (at least)

Sorry mate - cheap shot but I couldn't resist after your comment on the other thread. It would have been rude not to
