Ex-Chelsea and Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho could be open to becoming Arsenal head coach, according to the Sun. The Portuguese boss is said to be keen on taking on another job in the Premier League.
Following his run-ins with Arsene Wenger over the years, many Gunners have grown to dislike Mourinho with a passion, but some supporters on Twitter have been softening their stance, with a few suggesting he could sort out the club’s defence:
give up your Arsenal fan card right now if you want Mourinho in the club.

I wouldn’t take him. I would try to get Allegri or the Ajax manager.

It is very much a hypothetical scenario at the moment. Unai Emery remains in charge with the club’s hierarchy said to be happy with the job that the Spaniard is doing.
However, there is growing discontent among the fanbase about some of the decisions that the Arsenal manager has made recently, as well as the general direction that the club is heading in.
Whether Mourinho would be the solution to the club’s problems, it is up for debate. His CV speaks for itself but he would very much be a short-term fix.
