I think Wenger for a couple of seasons whilst we wait on Tuchel/Nagelsmann/whoever would be better and he does know how to build a team on the cheap too.
Should we appoint Wenger?

The state of this place
Definitely, and the worst one to date.
New low?
Erm, you do know OP is not serious, right?
Nevermind, go on...

Would he even want the job?
Fergie back in and Wenger as his assistant.
Maybe Kenny Dalglish could be his no 2?
So going for Wenger sounds sensible.
Your logic is sound.
Yes
I think this club is waiting for a proper old school manager who can do both the tactical and DOF bits right. Wenger has his weaknesses tactically but I think he'd be the right man to sort of stabilize us in the interim and he will get us playing some good stuff. I think it would be a good idea.
Bring him in.
We’re much worse than Arsenal ever been in the Wenger years.
Didn’t we learn from Van Gaal and to a lesser extent from Mourinho to not look to the past?
Better than Ole
So do you think we should go for Wenger?
If we’re going to do this again I’d rather see Ole as DoF or similar (his signings have been the highlights of the season so far) and to bring Poch in, presumably when he quits / gets sacked.
Surely with Poch’s public comments about Spurs’s transfer activity Ed couldn’t get away with another penny pinching window.

It would be embarrassing if we appointed Wenger, we'd have made full transformation into the banter club....but I'd still take him at this point. Can't get much worse. We are heading for a mid table finish currently.
I'd rather we went for Brendon Rogers if we had to choose between the two.

No the choices are Wenger or Moyes
This
Also...Wenger is not magic. One cannot polish a turd....and that is what most of our players are. Almost every one of them lacking to a disturbing level.
Manchester United players. Barely able to score from open play.
Well that knocks out Poch then
Is there a point in time where Manchester United fans actually get themselves together to solve the real issues? The state of the fanbase on every public platform is embarrassing right now.
Poch had a young team still, Wenger had Ozil/Alexis/Cazorla/Koscielny/Mertesacker/Monreal/Cech who were all in or close to their prime.
Great idea : we can just buy an entire league 1 club. Surely there must be a gem or two in there we basically got for less than what we paid for someone like Maguire. Rinse, repeat.
Rather not appoint another has-been manager even as a caretaker.
No obviously not. We should hire the right manager not just some set of old ideas that tried and didn't work
Why don’t we just sign the next Messi? It will fix everything.
Any available manager that's better than OGS should be a 'yes' to bring in.
I mean, why settle for a worse manager - thus worse results and worse footy...?
Just think about it pragmatically.

As a caretaker? Sure.
He is a phenomenal coach for young players, and every single young player we have would benefit immensely working with him, and we would play great football under him within a month or two of his appointment.
That’s a totally hypothetical scenario and won’t happen anyways.
Rest of the season then yeah. For a few years then nah.
Absolutely fecking not
He's a quality coach but was just awful at spotting defenders - given our defence is actually ok, when can he start?
The thing is, who would be considered a modern manager, I feel Thomas Tuchel is probably the dream manager to take in but why would he leave. Klopp another but as if that is ever going to happen now.
Really? He was struggeling big time at Arsenal and they didn't play good football for quite som years under him.
before mourinho was sacked this was the guy I wanted to caretake for the club. he will at least coach us on how to attack with possession. He isnt clueless in that department. I'm all for it to be honest.
I don't think he would join us because I suspect he would see it as a betrayal to the Arsenal fans
