#2 Arsene Wenger
The FA Cup triumph last season was Wenger's seventh as the manager of Arsenal and his third in the last four years. This silverware evidently eased some pressure on Wenger and helped him get a contract extension at the end of last season. However, Arsenal's failure to qualify for the Champions League last season, for the first time in 20 years, means that Wenger is under greater pressure than ever to deliver results this season.
And it seemed to be deja vu for the Arsenal supporters on the opening day of this season as they trailed 2-1 and then 3-2 against Leicester City at home before late goals from Ramsey and Giroud saw the Gunners snatch a late win.
However, the respite was only momentary as Arsenal slumped to a 1-0 loss at Stoke. Adding to this fact, Arsenal's next three fixtures include tough trips to Liverpool and Chelsea with a home game against Bournemouth sandwiched in middle. It may not be long before the "Wenger Out" chants are back at the Emirates Stadium.
