re: The Arsenal 2017/18: Au revoir Arsene, et merci.

I know that Xhaka and Mustafi have been poor this year. Which player hasn't been?

Two points here - These guys deserve a chance under a new manager. There's a reason both cost us 35 mill. Both have shown quality at times.

Secondly selling them means replacing them. We already need 1 CB. We sell Mustafi and that leaves us with old, injury prone Kos and the youth and inexpierence of Chambers and Holding. We need to add quality before we start selling everyone. We can only turn over so much of the roster in one summer window.
