Antonio Conte would be my choice. By all accounts he rubs people up the wrong way but is a strong disciplinarian and doesn't suffer fools. All the talk on here regarding Allegri, and I wouldn't turn him down tbh, but a lot of his success at Juve can be attributed to the squad and setup that Conte left behind when he resigned and took the Italian national job.
That's a good call mate - forgot about him. Did brilliantly when he took on the Chavs too. Should definitely be on the list. Available though??

From what I recall, he doesn't have the best relationship with the Inter owners, and they are out of Europe - so it's possible.

In that case, I hope he is on the radar of our fuckwits. Done it in this country and no doubt the disciplinarian we could do with

In contrast to our current manager, who got the job based on his experience in *checks notes* putting cones out.

With the greatest respect buddy, unless a miracle happens with allegri, our days of enticing a top tier (or even a second tier) manager is long gone. Maybe The Arsenal of ten or twenty years ago would be in a position to look down our noses at managers like rodgers and poxychino's, but that ship has long sailed and we are now a mid table club with a mid table budget and owned by an unambitious c.unt - not the most enticing situation for any manager, and believe me the day is fast approaching where the likes of rodger's and poxychino's would laugh at us if we approached them :oops: :oops: :oops:

Nobody wants him as first choice, but he makes a shortlist of available managers. Are you saying you'd rather persevere with this c.unt than get him?

It would make no difference. We'd still be mid table shite. And before the hysteria takes over on here the PL is so pants even Arteta and this team will get mid to upper mid table. The same as Poxychinos would get.

Gone by Wednesday. Even Arsenal can't fail to deal with this.

And never mind the likes of Simeone, Allegri or even Poch.......don't tell me Brendan Rodgers isn't an obvious upgrade on what we have.
