Manchester United is a dream job, admits Arsene Wenger

The French manager who is currently unemployed, while rumoured to join FIFA, left Arsenal after two decades winning three Premier League titles including the 2003/04 title where the club finished the season unbeaten. He still believes that Manchester United can challenge at all fronts only if they can sign four top-quality players and perhaps with him as the coach. When asked about the possibility of him being the manager of Manchester United, Wenger gave subtle hints of being interested in the job.

“Manchester United is a dream job for any manager. At least, any manager with courage and confidence. Yes, they need – in my opinion – 4 first team players. But around those players, I see a squad that is capable of challenging. They aren’t as far away as people think. Like I said, Manchester United is a dream job. For any coach. I have confidence, I have courage…and you’re right, I have ideas,” Wenger said as a pundit on beIN Sports.  

Wenger is looking for a return to fulltime club management. Even though he often appears as a Pundit on TV and has been offered a technical role at FIFA, his priority remains to return as a manager to a club that interests him. He also spoke about the system that the Old Trafford club employs and how the system needs to be improved and developed.

“The team have no pattern of play, no pattern of pressing. There is a team there, but it needs to be coached and developed. Like I said, 4 players and they can be challengers. For everything.” said Wenger.
