Arsenal fans, this is not a WUM.
But what on earth is Arsene Wenger doing on the Coach of the year shortlist ahead of someone more deserving like Massimilliano Allegri?
He is a good manager but in the year under consideration, he had so many bad games. If Wenger is in there, then why not someone like Mancini or Unai Emery?
Here's a link to the shortlist for those who haven't seen it

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer probably has more right to be in the list than Wenger does.

Sadly, he was awarded with that title but I think it was from the IFFHS not UEFA.

It may seem shocking to those outside of the sugar daddy clubs but some people consider it alot easier when you just have a chairman who pumps huge amounts of money into the club and the manager can sign who he likes without watching the finances at all...
Wenger has to operate his club on a very low budget and considering the success he has brought in comparison to his spending he has done very well...
