'However, I never considered taking the job.'

'I've worked hard to put my team together and I want to be more successful with them now. What do you think we'll do - let Manchester United win now because they're angry?'


Of course, some might argue that Wenger is already coaching the French national team. I for one am ecstatic to read that his dream is to make history by winning the CL for Arsenal.

The comments above are quite apt. It shows that A.W. is committed to Arsenal, and hopefully winning the "Champions League". The "French National Team" is the squad he is already working with to achieve this aim, which will hopefully arrive before France win either the World Cup or the European Nations Cup again!

In addition to this Tony Adams is now undertaking a 3 year University course in Sports Science. Adding that, "I am not yet ready or qualified to go into management or coaching".
Maybe after that course he will consider becoming "the sourcerer's apprentice" under A.W.

The only man I can think of who is worthy of holding Arsene Wenger's Magic Hat.
