It does make sense actually. And it's out of order for a suit to make that kind of approach, especially in mid-season.
The order of leaving for me:
Kronke
Gazidis
Wenger

I'm not sure. If we may presume that the manager deals with the technical/work side of things, the football, surely someone else, the chief exec maybe, must deal with the personal side; is your family happy and settling in well, is the house we found you OK: How about your kids; are their schools alright and so on.

The conflict story is interesting but perhaps it arose perfectly innocently and with the best intentions?
"Plenty of strikers can score goals," he said, gesturing to the famous old stands casting shadows around us.
"But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."
If someone is talking behind your back to other interested parties whilst at the same time offering you a new contract it is very, very hard to presume innocence.
Arguably, it's his job; contingency/succession planning and a' that? Merely testing the waters, even in general conversation.
Anyway, they are both on the same side. Our side.

Arguably. But the timing was atrocious and clearly divided the players.
Only "clearly" because we finished fifth, imo. And only by a point. Weren't we actually still contenders back then?
Thing is, there's always something, isn't there

I think there is point in all of this that appears to have been missed.
Assuming this is all true of course.... Why the **** is Gazidis discussing the possibility of a new manager with the players at all?
"Scoring a goal is better than sex" - Whoever said that was sticking it to the wrong woman
