Able to Pay Pepe, Arsenal urged to Recruit Brendan Rodgers Immediately
By db-admin
DBasia.news – Arsenal legend, Paul Merson, continued to voice his dissatisfaction with Unai Emery. Merson has asked Arsenal to immediately replace the coach with Leicester City manager, Brendan Rodgers.
Arsenal performed inconsistently with Emery. In two seasons, the Spanish manager has not donated any trophies.
Last summer Arsenal’s management granted Emery’s request for player spending. Including bringing in Nicolas Pepe at a price of 72 million pounds.
According to Merson, if wanting to succeed, then Arsenal must spend money and bring in Rodgers.
“I think Rodgers is one of the best in the business. If I were Arsenal, I would call Leicester and say, ‘How much do you want?’ If you pay 72 million pounds for Nicolas Pepe who hasn’t played in the Premier League and has played in the French League, then you have to dare to pay 40 million pounds for Rodgers, “Merson said at Soccerway.
“I would say Arsenal is suitable for Rodgers. Arsenal or Tottenham. I will not throw out Mauricio Pochettino, don’t get me wrong, I think he’s a different class. I think the two teams are after Rodgers. “
“For me, if you bring in Rodgers and
what he has done with the teams that he has mastered such as Swansea, Celtic,
Liverpool and now Leicester, you give him a six year plan and let him do what
he wants. He is a developing player, “Merson added.
