Tony Adams fears Arsene Wenger’s record-breaking reign as Arsenal boss could “end in tears” now he has signed a new deal.
The season-long saga over Wenger’s future was resolved this week as he signed a two-year extension in the wake of Saturday’s FA Cup final win over Chelsea.
Victory at Wembley gave the Gunners’ longest-serving boss a record seventh win in the competition, but a fifth-placed Premier League finish was the worst result of Wenger’s 21-year reign and reaction to his new deal among supporters has been mixed.
The Frenchman has made it clear the priority now is a first league title since 2004, but his two-time double-winning captain told Sky Sports News HQ he doubts whether that is achievable in the short-term.
“I believe this squad is not going to win the league in the next two years,” said Adams, who skippered Arsenal to four league titles. “It could possibly all crumble around him, and I think that would be very sad.
“From one human being to another human being, I hope it doesn’t. I really prayed that he’d get out after the FA Cup, say ‘enough is enough’ and find someone else to replace him.
“I don’t know who that is. I don’t know the legacy of Arsene. Maybe in the next two years he will have a legacy and he will get a transition of new coaches coming through. If he’s doing that I say ‘fantastic Arsene, wonderful’.
