The news of Carlo Ancelotti's sacking as Bayern Munich boss had barely broken before Arsenal fans had an idea.

Because with the three-time Champions League winning boss now suddenly available, Gunners fans have been tweeting the club in their droves in a bid to get them to appoint the Italian to replace Arsene Wenger in the Emirates Stadium hotseat.

Pressure has been building on Wenger ever since the Gunners missed out on a place in the top four last season, but he stayed on and signed a new two-year deal.

But those same fans still aren't happy, with defeats to Stoke and Liverpool this season leaving Arsenal six points off the pace.

And so with such a highly-regarded manager now available, fans are asking their club to make a bold move.

Is there any chance that the person behind the Arsenal Twitter account will listen to them though?

No, probably not.
