The interim has won five out of six but club ambitions dictate that they are thorough in their search for a permanent coach
Watching Arsenal coast to victory at Tottenham on Saturday, you could have been forgiven for forgetting that they are without a permanent manger. That is testament to the job Renée Slegers has done in interim charge, in overseeing five wins from six games without defeat, and inevitably speculation about her future will heighten.
Whether it is the jubilant Arsenal fans packed on to the London overground saying it was “her job to lose”, commenters on the Guardian’s match report echoing similar views, or people airing their thoughts on social media, it is clear there is a growing tide of fans, pundits and neutral observers calling for the Dutchwoman to be given the permanent job.
