While Arsenal boss Unai Emery, training Gunners since summer 2018, seems to be going through some hard times, especially since part of the team supporters don't look thrilled with his game system and style, an 8-name shortlist surfaces from Daily Mail columns. Such table includes Arsenal top brass picks ahead of Arsène Wenger's farewell, some of which might get topical again, in case Emery gets sacked. Besides former Sevilla FC and PSG manager, the "Trustful Eight" directory lists in three former players (Mikel Arteta, Patrick Vieira, Thierry Henry), Massimiliano Allegri (who was training Juventus up until last summer), current Sevilla FC boss Julen Lopetegui, former Argentina and Chile head coach Jorge Sampaoli, RB Leipzig main strategist Ralf Rangnick.
