Remi Garde
If, and when, Wenger does finally leave, you can bet your left testicle he will pick his replacement. And you can bet your right testicle that it will be Remi Garde or The Grimster...

I'm not surprised that allegri is the favourite, but I am surprised that he is the favourite by a distance as big as that
Wonder if the wheels are in motion what with the international break?....
Fuck waiting for him to make an announcement, Kroenke grow a pair and get rid asap...

I can't wait for a new manager as you all know my stance on Wenger and just how much I truly despise him nowadays.
My concern is for the next manager who comes in, is the same bollocks from the top which is simply no ambition to compete properly and have the underlying KPI of a minimum 1 trophy and to be significantly competing for the League and in Europe.
I'm worried our next manager is going to have his first meeting with Kroenke and Co. and simply be told he has to make top four and hopefully snatch a trophy along the way.
The new manager will probably walk into the club and think fuck? What is wrong with these owners? Do they even care about winning at the club?
The main problem at this club, for all my hatred of Wenger is the yank running the show. If he doesn't go, I'm truly worried nothing will change until he pisses off back to Texas.

The board hasn't got a football man on it that is a massive problem,totally agree.But the one positive is this no interference.
The only good thing for any new manager is they don't interfere a prime Mourinho or a younger man like Koeman would love it let alone Conte,Klopp,Allegri etc.....here is your budget here is the wage bill you are allowed to spend get on with it.For many,many top managers conditions they can only dream about.
The Arsenal manager job is a very attractive one I may be in the minority but a lot of top managers would love the total control of a club being paid a min 6m to Wengers 8m a year.Kroenke knows nothing about football as long as the club holds and increases it's value which it will he will be satisfied winning titles is neither here nor there for him.His USA 'franchises' tell us all we need to know.
Another potentially good manager (Allegri) will slip through our hands if AW signs another year deal.
Fuck giving the club a year to sort out a new manager it doesn't take that long plus they've had 20 years to do the prep anyway.

Agree the top managers are never short of offers why should they wait around.
The club hope he can turn things around........he can't.This season we are dropping out of the top 4.
IF he got Arsenal back into the top 4 next season I have no doubt he would be offered and would sign another new contract.
It's a fucking shambles and may have to get worse before it gets better.
I would also take:
Luis Enrique
Ronald Koeman
Slaven Bilic (I think, given the right players, he could be a really good manager)
Carlo Ancelotti
Thomas Tuchel
