‘Arsenal should bring Wenger back as Emery hangs on’ – Nicholas wants Frenchman as technical director

The former Gunners striker believes an iconic former boss still has plenty to offer and could help ease some of the pressure on an under-fire coach

Arsenal should bring Arsene Wenger back to the club as technical director, says Charlie Nicholas, with Unai Emery in need of assistance as he is left “hanging on” to his job at Emirates Stadium.

The current man at the Gunners helm, who stepped into the shoes of an iconic predecessor in the summer of 2018, is seeing some uncomfortable questions asked of his ongoing presence.

Struggles for consistency, particularly on the road, remain a serious thorn in Arsenal’s side under Emery, and Nicholas believes turning to a familiar face for help could prove to be a shrewd move.
