January we need to get rid of players to trim
The squad for the next manager
Ozil
Sanchez
Debuchy
Walcott
Coquelin.
06 Nov 2017 22:01:19
You forgot, giroud, wilshire, holding, chambers, xhaka, iwobi basically most of the rotten squad.
06 Nov 2017 22:07:48
You could easily add Iwobi and Xhaka plus Ramsey to that list.
The problem is how much would we get for them?
Iwobi 10 million?
Walcott zero Because of his wages
Mesut 10 million because he's available for free in the summer
Sanchez 20 million for the same reason as Ozil
Debuchy free
Le Coq 10 million because without Caz he struggles
Xhaka 17 million half what we paid for him if anyone would pay that much?
A huge clear out would mean a huge investment to replace them and a huge deficit in money received for money spent.
Our assets have depriciated considerably and our liabilities are overwhelming.

Elneny, bellarin etc. etc.
06 Nov 2017 22:17:55
Wenger, Kroenke.
06 Nov 2017 22:56:31
Not an awful lot left to build on.

I always said to you Steve xhaka has potential and you and many fans unfairly criticise him.
I aplogise to you all I was wrong!

If you are talking about payers that need to be replaced we could probably scrape together a 5 a side team after its done! Its that desperate.

We all knew before the season started we were a long way short which is why it surprises me that Arsene so far has shown prioty to the league over Europa and league cups in his team selections.
There will be no glory found in our league campaign that's for sure so he would be far better off trying to win as many cups as possible in order to soften a 5th to 7th place finish .
Top 4 is and always has been a very long shot for our current setup given the competition for those top 4 places.
5th and no cups will only making him an easier target for his ever increasing critics.

We need 5 new players minimum.
