Arsenal FC manager: How the Gunners could line up under Arsene Wenger's potential successor

Arsene Wenger is under an increasing amount of pressure to step down from his role as manager of Arsenal Football Club.

Following a humiliating 5-1 defeat v Bayern Munich in the first leg of the Champions League last 16, fans and former players have voiced the need for change in north London, after over 20 years.

The 67-year-old Frenchman is out of contract at the end of the season and, after Wednesday's defeat in Germany, told reporters he will make a decision in 'March or April'.

Should he depart the club, the three front-runners with the bookies are Massimiliano Allegri [Juventus], Eddie Howe [AFC Bournemouth] and Thomas Tuchel [Borussia Dortmund], while Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone is favoured by many fans.
