Arsene Wenger: Arsenal boss to leave club at end of season

Wenger leaving at the end of the season then....wasn't expecting that!

Somnambulist · 20 Apr 2018 at 09:56

It's finally happening! :eek:

trigg_27 · 20 Apr 2018 at 09:58

It's the news many of us hoped for. I wouldn't be surprised if this wasn't known within the club for several months. We probably already have his replacement lined up behind the scenes

...and that's the end of this thread.

Who do you reckon that is?

Have to be careful what you wish for sometimes, I know Wenger isn't particularly popular but im not sure if its him pulling the strings in terms of signings.

YES FINALLY! SO HAPPY! this is like winning the title!

It's win-win. If we crash out in Europe he'd have to go, if we managed to win the EL then it'd be the perfect send-off and he'd probably tarnish it staying another season.

Haha, just hope you get someone good to replace him!

Just looked at the odds for next manager and the 3 favourites are Tuchel, Loew and Allegri.

Of those, I'd much prefer Allegri. Loew has done well as a national team manager, but club football is completely different while Tuchel hasn't particularly impressed me at Dortmund. Allegri however has done a tremendous job in resurrecting Juventus

Woah, never thought I'd see the day

Part of me really hopes that Arsenal start sliding down the order now, just to stick it to the 'fans' that have been calling for Wenger to quit/be sacked

Lol so Wenger is going at end of the season. About time and long overdue.

Now let’s send him off with the eulolpa league trophy so he can end it on a high.

As much as I want him gone, I’ll miss him in a weird way. I mean he’s been there over 20yrs and was like part of the furniture lol. It will be weird not having him there managing but it’s for the best as we need a new direction now and I just feel he isn’t the man anymore.

Hopefully the board will have a decent world class manager to come in and hell no to Brendan Rodgers.
