Hi Ed,
Strange question: do you rate Balogun? Are we making a mistake here?
{Ed002's Note - I don't know much about him but without an idea of where the future lies kids will look to move on. It happens at all senior clubs, and Arsenal.}

Thanks Ed. Just worried about another Gnabry situation.

I don't really blame the club for the Gnabry situation, it was clearly planned by the player and by BM. Balogun seems to be a more avoidable loss, we just needed to give him some minutes.

Wait and see what happens with Auba and Laca, if one or both leave then a gap may appear but if they stay then who drops out to accommodate Balogun minutes, Martinelli or Eddie?
Trying to keep everyone happy usaully ends up making everyone unhappy, rotation rotation rotation simply doesn't work.

Too right g62, you get the feeling the club need to back a horse eventually. Glad it's not me, I'd be too much of a softy like Wenger was and try to please everyone.

Time and natural events will decide what happens with Balogun next wire mate, under 23s is a no man's land where if you stay to long you regress rather than progress so if we can't find room in our 24 then get him out on loan at the highest standard where he is guaranteed game time, the only thing worse than not playing for us is not playing for your loan club like with Eddie at Leeds.
