Tony Cascarino believes Arsenal should forget about Jose Mourinho and Max Allegri as potential replacements for the under pressure Unai Emery and instead made a suggestion which may raise a few eyebrows.
According to Football London via talkSPORT, Cascarino claimed Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder would be his go-too man if Emery is sacked.
Man United job, Arsenal job – Chris Wilder? Absolutely. There would be a snobbery around football that would go for Allegri or Mourinho. But I’m like, ‘No, I’d rather go with Chris Wilder.’ He knows football, he’s a proper football person. Like Sir Alex Ferguson, Jurgen Klopp at Mainz, Pep Guardiola at Barcelona B – he’s shown what he can do.

While Cascarino’s suggestion about Wilder may be a surprise, the Blades boss is definitely winning a lot of plaudits at Brammal Lane.
Wilder’s men are currently in sixth position in the Premier League, just a point behind the Gunners in fifth, with the Blades currently giving anyone who tipped them as stonewall candidates for relegation a rather red face.
