Former Gunner Ian Wright says he would like to see Arsenal replace Wenger with Burnley manager Sean Dyche.

Dyche has become one of the best managers in the league and has performed wonders with Burnley in recent years. Keeping the Clarets in the Premier League is one thing, but they currently sit 6th in the table and look very strong.

Dyche’s men have beaten Chelsea away from home so far this season, as well as earning respectable draws against Tottenham and Liverpool. They really do look like a solid side at the moment, and Wright has tipped the 46-year-old manager to move on to greater things in time.

When asked if he would take Dyche at Arsenal, Wright said: “Yeah. The fact is would they give Sean Dyche that job?”

“In respect to how his team sets up when they’re defending, he’s obviously got acumen – but will he get a job like that? I don’t think he will.”

“They’ll probably start touting him for the England job.”

“We’re so bereft of any manager that’s good enough, that can take on the England job. If he carries on like he is he’ll probably be pushed into that role.”

Speaking alongside Wright on BBC 5 Live, Scottish midfielder Charlie Adam agreed, and said he has all the attributes to succeed at a big club like Arsenal.

“Maybe some of these superstars need someone like him to come in and have a go. If he’s got the right attributes he can coach anybody.”

“He’s an experienced manager in the Premier League. He’s done his groundwork with relatively smaller teams and got them set up well.”

“He’s got the attributes to manage one of the top clubs. If Arsenal want him they should take him.”
