Wenger Favourite To Replace Zidane !!! by Neil Watson
So Talksport have reported within an hour of Zidane resigning as manager of Real Madrid that the favourite to replace him is……..( wait for it )………Arsene Wenger!
As you might know I have a deep rooted hatred of the media based purely on the fact that they lie about rumours continually, causing fans, who believe what they read, to be disillusioned by the eventual outcome. Basically they just make a huge amount of it up.
Now that very same media certainly helped the Arsenal fans who wanted Wenger out, myself included, but now watch them build this story, suggesting that his ‘experience and flare for creating teams that play attacking football’ will make him the perfect choice for Madrid. Despite the fact no more than a month ago they were saying, at 68, his best years are behind him….. which they most definitely are!
I hate lazy journalism. The only enjoyable thing I can glean from this story is that it might piss off Sergio Ramos for a few hours and wipe the smug grin off Ronaldo’s face.
If, in the extremely unlikely scenario, there is any truth in it I think will be something that will justify our clubs decision to, allegedly, fire him.
What odds would you get for him going there and helping them to a sixth place finish?
