Arsene Wenger would be a great fit for Chelsea according to former Arsenal goalkeeper David Seaman.
Chelsea fans turned their anger onto under-fire manager Maurizio Sarri during the 2-0 defeat to Manchester United on Monday night as frustrations grow over the Italian’s style of play and refusal to adapt his system.
The former Napoli manager is facing an uncertain future in west London with Sunday’s League Cup final against Manchester City, just two weeks after losing 6-0 to the Premier League champions, growing in significance.
Wenger, who has not returned to management since leaving north London after 22 years last summer, has kept his cards close to his chest regarding what will come next for his career, and while it would be unlikely, Seaman thinks he would do well at Stamford Bridge.
“Arsene always said he wouldn’t come back to the Premier League because of his love for Arsenal, that he wouldn’t feel right competing against Arsenal,” Seaman told Talksport.
“But obviously time’s a healer and he could think, ‘I want to go back there and prove a few people wrong’.
“For me, Arsene got a lot of criticism that wasn’t deserved over his last few years at Arsenal.
“It looks like there could be a vacancy at Chelsea quite soon, depending on their next three games which are three big games for Chelsea.
“He’d be great there, I think. He’d be great anywhere, he’s a fantastic manager.
“I would love to see him back, but I don’t think it would happen.”
