Arteta best placed to fill Premier League managerial void, says Guardian

This used to be a land of giants, with fierce rivalries between Sir Alex Ferguson and Arsène Wenger, and later José Mourinho, Jürgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola. But next season marks a turning point: for the first time since the Premier League's creation in 1992, none of those five leading bosses will be in the league. According to The Guardian, that is a seismic shift.

The question now is who takes over. Arsenal's Mikel Arteta is perhaps best placed to fill the void, the article notes. Yet the coaching contenders are legion, and with another season looming, several names are in the frame to establish themselves as the league's next alpha manager.

Whatever the outcome, the Premier League remains as competitive as ever. Fans can keep up with the action through related match highlights on this site.
