A match made in heaven: Arsenal Football Club + Eddie Howe = footballing utopia.

But is it the right job at the wrong time for the Englishman? Certainly Harry Redknapp thinks so, suggesting that, although Howe has worked wonders at Bournemouth, he only has experience of working with lower league players, and that world-class stars might start questioning the top-level calibre of Howe.

Right now, he should just concentrate on steering Bournemouth away from the relegation zone and secure them a third season of Premier League football. If not his time, then you can be certain Eddie Howe will end up managing one of English football's big clubs in the future, or the national side itself.
