Prologue:
Wenger Sacked
Pep and Mourinhio Dismiss Arsenal Interest

Arsene Wenger Sacked!

After 7 years, 5 months, 8 days and 16 hours since Arsenal last won a trophy (src:http://www.sincearsenallastwonatrophy.co.uk). Arsene Wenger was today sacked by the Arsenal board.

They released a statement saying:
"We are sad to see Arsene leave, but we feel we are not going forward with him. We decided he has grown stale in his post and feel Arsenal needs a younger manager"

Bookies say Pep Guardiola (2/1) is favourite to take over, The job has also been linked with Jose Mourhinio (10/2) , but he is unlikely to leave Madrid.Finally, at 1500/1 there is Carlo Ancelotti

Whoever it may be Arsenal fans are surely willing to find out soon enough and they have stated they want a new manager very quick, so he can work on improving the squad and transfers.

Sounds like the start of a good story, good luck;)

Mourinhio and Guardiola Dismiss Arsenal Interest

Jose Mourhinio and Pep Guardiola have today dismissed the interest from Arsenal, Mourhinio stated: "I have a job to do at Madrid, and I will fulfil my contract before I decide my future" then shortly after Guardiola, the ex Barcelona boss came out to say: "I am taking a break from football, and don't want a job currently."

This will have been a big knock to Arsenal, Who stated they would love Pep or Jose as their boss, it looks like the new favourite is Ancelotti, but it is a heavy doubt he will leave oil-rich PSG. This has left Arsenal with a heavy problem on who to hire, Steve Bould, current assistant manager has already been considered.

No one is really sure though on who will be hired. The Arsenal fans would love a new boss soon though.

Looks very nice so far. Liked the "7 years, 5 months, 8 days and 16 hours"

will be keeping an eye on your story good luck. That website is brilliant haha. Sorry Gooners. Im sure it will have to come down 1 day

Can I have £10 on Ancelotti please? haha

Shock At The Emirates!

Today, Arsenal arranged an announcement of their new manager at the Emirates with the press conference 1 day later, Everyone was expecting it to be a well known manager, but they were in for a suprise.

Luis Figo, Walked on to the pitch and shook hands with Peter Hill-Wood, as he announced over microphone that they had appointed the 39 year old ex Barcelona and Real Madrid player.

Luis Figo, over his career played for Sporting CP before he moved to Barcelona (in 1995), then he enraged Barcelona fans in 2000 by moving to Real Madrid, when he was a club legend at Barcelona. To end his career in 2005 he moved to Inter, He states to this day that Inter is his favourite club. He also notched up 127 caps for Portugal in his career.

The Arsenal fans are willing to give him chance to prove himself. They hope he will bring European Glory to Arsenal.
