Initial thoughts are that it is sad to see Wenger depart after such a long and successful reign. Also, excitement at the new challenge ahead.
Selection of the next manager will be crucial. Following Gazidis's statement, I can't see the club going for an older manager, such as Ancelloti. The names that are being strongly touted are Rodgers, Vieira, Enrique and Allegri. All four have strong credentials to replace Wenger. I just hope the board make the correct decision and that the fans are satisfied.

Rodgers that would be a disaster IMO, that stupid team talk to Liverpool holding an envelope oh dear . similar to Gross at Spuds holding a tube ticket.

I think the club will gage fans feeling towards the next manager before they appointment him as the last thing they would want is to bring in someone that sparks even more fans unrest, I'm sure they've had enough of that for a bit, which immediately rules out Brendan Rogers.
I'm not saying their decision will be based on fan popularity but I don't think their looking for another management out campaigns to start just yet :-)

Gunner, not my first choice but i can't see past ancelotti, he for me would be a safe appointment for the board.

Steve appointing a manager is like buying a new pair of shoes, maybe the first pair you try on might not be comfortable despite looking good so you have try a different pair and possibly a few pairs until you get the ones that are right for you.
Arsene was brand new type of shoe that provided fantastic years of service unfortunately they no longer were up to the job we needed them to do but boy they were good when they were new.
