Word on the street is that Koeman will join Arsenal in 12 months time.
Not a bad shout if that turns out to be true.

Please no. Any one else, or its just more of the same conservative, risk averse, boring, repetitive footy, guaranteed fourth place every year.
Tuchel please.

Boring, repetitive football? You're joking right?
I wouldn't mind Koeman at all , he has done a great job with limited resources. Coped really well with Soton selling some of their best players last few seasons.
Simone is my preferred choice though.

He must be past his best, never a PL player any more surely?

Can't see it happening, think Wenger will sign an extension.
No reason for the board to take a risk on a new manager when the current one delivers all they desire.

Surely Simone doesn't fit the Arsenal way?

Simeone would be too confrontational for Arsenal. I can't see that happening. Koeman would be a good fit at Arsenal but would he be prepared to wait a year and as we know a lot can happen in a year. If another club comes in he may go this summer. Everton for one will be, hopefully, looking for a manager and they may offer him more to spend than Southampton are able. New owners, a good but under performing team, a war chest to spend. We could sell it to him as another stepping stone up the ladder.

It'll probably be an internal promotion, with wenger moving upstairs. Probably Bould or Jonkers.
Or, it will still be Wenger.
Either way, it'll be more of the same.

Great, great manager but time to move on rather than up methinks...

Comes to something when Arsenal are being heckled by Liverpool fans about winning titles :rofl:

I don't see it Wenger will sign an extension and then retire. Don't see why they would replace Wenger with Koeman just a poor copy Imho.

You couldn't make it up. Classenal fans regularly had a pop at Chelsea and their fans because of Mourinho's supposed lack of class, yet would like the mini-Mourinho currently serving a touchline ban for getting another ball thrown onto the pitch as their next manager………… :rofl:

What is the 'Arsenal way' ? To me, how we play at the moment is the 'Wenger way'. Look at us under George Graham, that solid style is just as much the Arsenal way for me.
I would love Simeone, but think the board want another yes man, which he obviously wouldn't be.

Pall I can say is I hope the arsenal board feel the same way as you. He can stay at saints as long as he likes. The blokes class. He's beaten every single team in the league since he took over us. Including all of the supposed big teams these season.

Still an improvement.
Throwing an extra ball on is better than other ball-boy shenanigans, I could mention.

You may offer more of a war chest than Southampton, but they have a production line of good players.
Dont get me wrong, EFC also bring many good players through, but Soton are unsurpassd, recently. Might have a bearing on it.

Surely though what Leicester have achieved this season puts to bed the arguement that a player/manager has to move to a big club to get anywhere/thing?
Why then would he want to leave a club that is doing well?

Simeone, for me, falls into the category of be careful for what you wish for...
I was hoping Arsenal were going to make a real go of luring Pochettino away from the spuds but it looks like he's staying put... Think he will eventually end up in Spain... So, maybe not a long term prospect...
