What about Domenec Torrent. He's Pep's pal and has just won the League in the US with New York City FC and likely to win the play-offs. He won 24 trophies as Pep's assistant at Bayern and City. This is the sort of thing CFG may want to do as a succession plan or even Arteta and Torrent as a team together. I don't think they will want to change the structure. The key thing is to retain Txiki, Soriano, and Khaldoon as the top team. Story in the Mail today suggests Van Bronckhorst is being lined up for NYCFC. Why take a gamble on someone from outside, no matter how good they are.
