Arsene Wenger
Arsene Wenger is the Manager of Arsenal FC and he is now the longest serving Manager in the club’s history. Arsenal have endured a difficult build-up to the new season following the departure of a number of key players, including captain Cesc Fabregas. As a result Wenger has come under pressure like never before, which is reflected in his position as one of the favourites in the Next Premier League Manager To Be Sacked Betting. The Frenchman must act fast before the transfer window shuts in order to bring in the sort of high quality replacements the fans desperately crave.
Wenger is priced at 3/1 with Sky Bet NOT to last the season.
Achievements
Since joining the Gunners in 1996 Wenger has won 3 Premier League titles, 4 FA Cups and 4 Community Shields. However, Arsenal haven’t won any silverware in six years and if this pattern continues then Wenger and Arsenal may decide to part ways.
Wenger’s main focus used to be the Champions League, which he came very close to winning in 2006. Now, however, any trophy will do as he aims to end Arsenal’s trophy drought.
Job Security
Up until recently Wenger’s job was very secure. Recently he has come under pressure for not splashing the cash in the transfer market, instead relying on his young guns, who have so far not lived up to their potential. With key players such as Cesc Fabregas, Gael Clichy – and soon to be Samir Nasri – leaving the future doesn’t look to bright for Arsene and Arsenal.
