Who should replace Arsene Wenger at Arsenal?

Arsenal’s season has collapsed in March and April and this has lead to speculation about whether Wenger will extend his stay at the emirates for a few more years. So in this article i’m going to briefly list the possible candidates to replace him.

2. Roberto Martinez:

Another manager who has been linked with a move to Arsenal is Roberto Martinez. Roberto Martinez joined Everton in 2013 after winning the F.A. cup with Wigan despite being relegated from the Premier League.

But this doesn’t tell the whole story as Martinez has masterminded many great escapes with a Wigan team that many regarded as dead and buried in the relegation battle causing loads of upsets along the way the biggest of which was when they beat Manchester city 1-0 to claim the F.A cup in 2013.

Many people were unsure about whether he would be able to give Everton the same stability that Moyes gave them but the Spaniard has taken Everton to the next level. He has made them start playing attractive, possession based attacking football, which is very similar to Arsenal’s style of play, while also having a solid defense which has made Everton a very hard to beat. He gives his players the freedom to express themselves on the pitch and the players have flourished under his tutelage. Martinez is extremely enthusiastic about his team and is constantly seen encouraging them on the sidelines.

The former Swansea manager also has had a huge hand in the growth of players like Lukaku and Barkley who are swiftly becoming the most sought after players in England.

Martinez has a special bond with his team and is loved by the fans. He was able to assess his squad at the beginning of the players and quickly made the required transfers to plug the holes in his squad. The only negative about Martinez joining Arsenal is that he has never managed a side of Arsenal’s magnitude before, but I’m sure it won’t take him too long to adapt.
