No No No to Mourinho.
Just no.

Yes please to Xhaka.
Yes please to Morata - though Augbayameng preferred.

Yes please to Carvalho or Krychowiak.

Yes please to Griezemann. Oh, and a grade A top class centre back please!

In my dreams.

Mourinho is a born winner, a master of tactics. However after what has gone on with him and Wenger i doubt he will be taking over. Very much like with Chelsea surely he would have lost the dressing room before he took over. However, stranger things have happened. I can't see it, but who else is there that could manage after Arsene?

He is a winner, but he is a short term option. He doesn't really like building anything, preferring instead to buy in, unless he inherits the finished article - like Real Madrid. It would also spell the end of Arsene's involvement with the club, which would not be desirable. As to who, it's a moot question and one that the WengerOut brigade find it hard to answer. This time last year I would have been interested in Klopp, but his style seems less than inspiring. I like Simeone, but again if you want a medium to long term option, it's hard to even draw up a shortlist. One thing is certain though, Wenger's reign will at some point end; my guess is it will be within the next two years.

there isn't any such thing as "long term" in football management anymore there will never be managers at clubs in the same way as arsene and ferguson. not sure i would agree with mourinho as manager but just saying no way because of some of the thing he has said about wenger is nonsence, ferguson used to wind up arsene no end as did allardyce, its part of the game i doubt any of that actually goes on when the camera ain't rolling . plenty of other managers and players praise mourinho allot. i still don't think he is the right choice or even an option i believe its international week so time to sell some papers.

Mourinho in the end was outcasted by the club that once adored him and ended up a sad isolated figure at the club he brought into the new age! Would he have the ability to succeed at Arsenal? I for one doubt it because of the way he ended his Chelsea tenure and he would be hated by at least 70% of the Arsenal faithful.

I don't get the morata hype either guys. Shocking goal record playing for two of europes best teams who get lots of chances . I know it's paper bs but 40 million are you sure lol.

Griezman or reus would be great. I wonder if Dortmund keep hold of him again also would be interesting to see if aubameyang leaves. Can't imagine them both been sold.

Extremely worrying news that Welbeck has had to miss training with England due to continuing knee problem.
On another topic rumours that Mourinho's representatives have been approached by Arsenal. If Wenger does depart, I must admit that I would love to see an injection of Mourinho's passion at the club, even if it is only for two or three seasons.
Finally, what are the thoughts on Alvaro Morata for a reported £40m.

I'd never spend a single penny on an Arsenal team managed by Mourinho, any one who how'd want that embarrassment of a man leading Arsenal need to think about the comments he's made about the club and the lack of respect he's shown Arsene over the years has been disgusting.

We may have lost our way over recent years but let's a least keep our dignity and class and NOT have a manager without either.

Mary Berry Dale Winton or Jose Mourinho its a tough one to call because their all as likely as each other to be one who takes over from Arsene as manager.

RG69.
It's the friendlies mate. Being injured all of a sudden is like a right of passage so you don't have to play. and get injured for your country.,
Except for Ramsey who does it the other way round mate.
😂👍.

Welbeck is training separately from the team doing his own routine as agreed between Arsenal and England.

End of drama.

Ha ha ha so arsenal have approached moureen. A third party, has approached moureen to check his availability, ha ha, got to be maureens agent getting sweaty palms utd might keep van gaal, putting it out there trying to get some action from man u that obviously isn't occurring yet. He might come and wenger could mentor him.

I believe that Mourinho wold prefer to manage Arsenal, opposed to Man U, as his family are very settled in London. If Wenger were to be replaced this summer, there are very few top managers available and capable of managing us in the PL.
Guardiola and Ancelotti are not available. Does SImone speak English? Conte is on his way to Chelsea. Although I like him, I am not convinced that Pellegrini would be any better than Wenger. Perhaps, Ranieri would be a good choice and we could tempt him away from Leicester. I like Pochettino, but he hasn't won anything to date and I doubt he would make the move to us. Koeman may be a possibility or we go for an untried manager such as Henry or Vieira. All in all it would be interesting, to say the least, to have Mourinho at the helm.
