'If the Club continue to ban Alan Esparza from matches on the basis of his selling a spare ticket at face value, it could have implications for the majority of Arsenal regulars'
It would of been very interesting, but Arsene did transform English football with his tactics, methods and philosophies... And his eye for spotting talent and transforming them (henry from winger to striker for example)... I dont doubt Cruff would of been successful and bought something new to the game, but I dont think he would of had the impact and longevity of Arsene...

Looking like willian could be a united player soon
Juventus expect to announce the signing of Emre Can from Liverpool after the Champions League final.
The Germany international midfielder had been offered new terms by Liverpool but they have refused to include a buyout clause in any contract proposals.
Juve chief executive Beppe Morata told Italian TV: 'I am confident we will be able to announce Emre Can after the Champions League final.'

Mour to Morata: Glad I didn't sign you last Summer...
Mour to Willian: Hope I can sign you this Summer!

I like him as a player, but he will be 30 in a few months. If he wants to go join Mourinho, it about the right time to sell him anyway.
Ideally, i would hope he stays a few more years, and then Hudson Odoi or Musonda takes his place, but who am i kidding.

Pretty sure Cruijff would have changed the prem, probably would have been successful in Europe aswell. He changed La Liga and Barca, as a player and a coach...pioneered a system Bayern, Barca, City, Germany, Spain etc nowadays play. Im leaving out what he did for Holland lol.
I'm about 99% sure that if Cruijff went to Arsenal, they wouldve had atleast 10 more league titles. That man was lightyears ahead of Wenger and Fergie. It wouldnt have been fair if Johan entered the - back then - weak azz prem lol. I remember how cocky the Dutch, Spanish, Italians etc were in the 90s when talking about the prem, all heart/kick n rush, no tacticz etc. Times have changed...

In a recent interview with ESPN Brasil, Willian was asked to discuss his relationship with Chelsea coach Antonio Conte and said: "Oh boy! Do you really want me to tell you. Let's save that one for the next interview."
He did transcend epl football, but look at the games in today’s time. Pep, Spain’s national team, Holland 1988 and beyond squad, Ajax 1995, that entire decade, and a rack of coaches adopted johan cruyff coaching method out of holland.
Cruyff tactics lives on in today’s time and folks win with it. Cruyff influences is just broader.
But, they both winners and brought their brand to the masses, which pretty much matters most.
Wenger will always be one of the GOATS.
@Hundredeyes just saw your post. Total football

In true Belgian style, we got a player who won't STFU!
Courtois is not sure where the Italian's future lies - 'whatever he or the club decides, they will know what they do,' the goalkeeper said - nor does he know where he will spend the 2018-19 campaign.
'Like I said in the last weeks or months, I think we'll see after the World Cup whether I am a Chelsea player for next year,' the Belgium international said.
'We'll see what is going to happen after the World Cup.'
Courtois has been heavily linked with Real Madrid and its appears Chelsea need to win over their goalkeeper.
With his contract soon running out, the 26-year-old believes the Blues have to dig deep to have any chance of a title challenge next term.
Asked if Chelsea need a big summer to add players in order to challenge for the title, Courtois said: 'Yeah, I think so. I think especially if you see how City and United are spending and working.
'I think if we want to aim for the top, we should do the same - obviously within the limits of what's possible as well.
'I think that the transfer market has gone pretty crazy. Nowadays you pay £80million for a defender I think - that's crazy figures.
'We'll see what's going on and I am sure the board will do what needs to be done.'

The biggest mistake Wenger made was not replacing Viera and Henry with like for like world class replacements
We don't need him. The wide position we are strong in
