9 candidates who can succeed Arsene Wenger as Arsenal manager

Thierry Henry

Henry enjoyed two spells as a player at Arsenal

The greatest player in the club’s history, Henry has been clear that one day he wishes to manage Arsenal.

However, despite a short-lived coaching spell at Arsenal, and his current role as assistant manager of the Belgium national team, Henry simply doesn’t have the experience required to take on such a huge role.

His work as a pundit proves he has an astute tactical mind, but so does Gary Neville and look how it turned out for him at Valencia.

The Frenchman will undoubtedly manage the club at some point in the future but I don’t think it will be now.

However, I could see him as a number two in a dream double act with Vieira.
