5 former players who could become Arsenal’s next manager

Arsenal need a new manager and it's got to be someone who knows the club inside out. There are a lot of options available but getting someone who's already been at the club would be a very good choice. There are a lot of players who played for the Gunners and are now managers. Here's a look at 5 possible ex-players who could come back to manage Arsenal: #5 – Patrick Vieira ad1 Partick Vieira is right now one of the candidates to be the next Arsenal manager. Wenger himself has revealed that he sees the Frenchman coming back to the club one day and taking over as the coach. The 41-year-old is currently the manager of New York City FC and has been doing a tremendous job. His MLS side are on top of the table with 5 wins and 2 draws in their first 7 games this season. It would be a big gamble to get him back at Arsenal right now but it's one that would go down well with the fans. ad2 ad2 #4 – Thierry Henry ad1 Thierry Henry is currently with the Belgium National side and is on his way to the World Cup. The Arsenal legend has always said that he wants to manage the club one day and this might be the opening he was waiting for. The Gunners are on the lookouts for a new manager and should throw the hat on Henry. He is experienced and knows the club well. It would be the best experiment right now for the club. ad2 ad2 #3 – Mikel Arteta ad2 Mikel Arteta has been linked with a move to Emirates for some time now. He joined Pep Guardiola's staff and has been learning from the Spaniard for 2 seasons now. He has a Premier League medal and now it would be a good time for him to take a risk. He's just 36-years-old and it would be a brave move by Arsenal and it wouldn't be a big gamble too. ad1 ad1 #2 – Remi Garde ad2 Remi Garde's first try in the Premier League did not go as per plans. The former Lyon manager had taken charge of Aston Villa and left the club within 5 months. None the less, he's a very good coach and it would be a good move for Arsenal to give him another chance in the Premier League. Even if he fails, it won't make a big difference for the club and it would only make Wenger's legacy look even better. ad2 ad2 #1 – Tony Adams ad2 Tony Adams has already said that he is interested in being the replacement for Arsene Wenger and that's something you need in a manager – confidence. Not many managers would have the courage to take up this job right now after seeing what happened to David Moyes at Manchester United. The Arsenal legend has been going a good job at Granada and though he might not bring back instant success at Emirates, it would be a step in the right direction. ad1
