In 1996 when Wenger was appointed ( and inherited a good squad) the only manager of real note was Sir Alex ( class 92 ) . In world football there was none better but no others in the prem at that time. Now we have Pep Klopp Moanio Conte Mopo who are all rated on world stage . In my humble opinion we can't take a chance as there are 5 top class managers already here. We can't be cheap but fear we will. Ed002 has stated our options are becoming limited and I believe that but then I believe the eds are florists or trainee chimney sweeps. Give him the budget Allegri for me if not Ancellotti COYG.

{Ed002's Note - Allegri would be a great choice but it is not “budget” per se that is the issue. It is not a “give me 250M euro” issue. But as I said, he would be a great pick.{

What I don’t get, Is clearly at points Allergi could have been had. The fans want him, the players would be more than happy to work under him I’m sure, out of all the candidates we’ve been linked with, he’s most likely to steer the ship the right way and attract too talent; so why on Earth are the board not doing everything they can to get him. The board really are just in it for the money.

Thanks Ed02! Is it our position in world footballl that is not attractive to Allegri or is he just happy 😊 at Juve? Also can I have a quote for a dozen roses and a hearth that needs cleaning in Sussex? COYG.

{Ed002's Note - Coaches want to understand the management structure, their role, what the expectations are, will their style of football fit with the players they have, what changes they will be able to make etc.. They will consider what has happened with coaches in the past - and from that point Arsenal are well placed.}

No idea why we don't spend big if players are the right age price Stan should look at them as an investment.

A top4 return won't come for free.

Derby you get the players that are needed, whatever the price. Like you say, the right players pay for themselves and their value goes up if you get the right players.
