Unfortunately this process was spearheaded by Ivan Gazidis in May, then he did a runner to A.C. Milan in September. Then he put Raul, Sven and Vinai in charge as a 3 man team which collapsed like Jenga. Bald Bastard.

Allegri will not be compatible with this side.
Complete mismatch.
Madrid would have been a great fit a coupoe of years ago. Bayern too.
Explainā¦
Weāve got a bunch of youngsters that will need time to develop.
Allegri wants to manage a club thatās ready made.
His #1 target when he joins a club is Isco per Fabrizio.
Iām not surprised the last job he was considered for was Man Utd and he got snubbed over Ole then.

I get what youāre saying but is it really a full blown youth project at Arsenal rn?
As far as youngsters go itās pretty much ESR and Saka who are worth anything in terms of talent, other than that the squad is full of experienced players.

Saka, ESR, Martinelli, Saliba, Azeez, Balogun and possibly more.
We heard before that they forced Ljungberg onto Emery so they can see him utilize our academies more.
I could see an Allegri if someone very ambitious bought the club and was gonna invest immediately but this aināt happening anytime soon.
It isnāt a full youth project yet but it should be and likely will have to be if weāre without European football next year.
The club have tried every shortcut imaginable.
Signing a bunch of Dortmund guys.
Signing a bunch of Chelsea guys.
Signing a bunch of expensive players to big deals into their 30s.
Signing a coach with a track record of getting into the CL via the EL.
Signing a coach with literally no track record of anything.
Signing a DoF who was a criminal.
Attempting to start a totally new European League.
The only thing we havenāt tried is taking our medicine, readjusting our average age and building from there.
To do that properly I think you need someone with at least a little experience and a clear vision of how they play. Arteta just doesnāt have that AND heās been let down by the lack of infrastructure around him. Who can he go to for advice? Per? Edu? Vinai? Steve Round? Cmon.
Heās not the guy. Maybe heāll be successful sometime down the line. Look at Luis Enriqueās stint at Roma. He was out on his ear fast AF. He wound up becoming a pretty good coach. Could say the same for Rudi Garcia at Roma. Could say the same for Fonseca whoās getting fired this summer. Actually, come to think of it Roma and Arsenal are both similar in that theyāre really poorly run from a management and ownership perspective. Roma did just get new owners though.

Indeed. That made me chuckle @Joshua.
Usually I would like to get a replacement before getting rid.
However, we are so shit that, even if we fire Arteta first, any replacement can get a similar result.
Win some odd games, lose some unexpected games, consistently inconsistant.
Like Moh said on AFTV, what are we losing if letting go of Arteta? No.
The only thing they havenāt tried is getting a top manager.
Itās a controversial idea but Iāve seen other clubs try it and sometimes it actually works.
Please get Rodgers.

Rodgers seems like one of those candidates who some people love while others hate. I would be thinking about him also, Iāve always felt heās underrated (even still) and I think he ticks a lot of the boxes for me.

A massive improvement on Arteta, thatās for sure. Not the elite, but wouldnāt mind him atm.
