This 15-year-old thread suddenly seems relevant again. So since the Monchi thread (where we were discussing the technical director role in general) has been closed, I figured I'd bring this back.
Technical director, director of football, team manager, CEO, board of directors, chairman, vice ...Wenger anyone?
Surely it makes more sense for the mods to reopen and rename the Monchi thread into a general ‘director of football search’ thread than to force new threads / bumps like this.
As @Slartibartfast has pointed out- discussion in there went far beyond mere Monchi anyway.
Sort it out @American_Gooner , @blaze_of_glory , @OnlyOne
What about Luis Campos that other posters have raved about?
a connection with Arsenal surely should take precedence over a connection with Emery, who for all we know could be gone in a couple of years
whereas Arsenal will be here forever
How much of Ajax starting eleven was scouted and how much of it is from the academies?Alright, since we have a dedicated technical director thread up and running (although I did enjoy that little trip down memory lane), it seems Steve Morrow is being mentioned as a possible internal candidate.
I also found this an interesting statement.
The Gunners want to hire someone who either has a pre-exisiting history with Emery or a track record at Arsenal.
That would seem to narrow the field considerably.
