But Kos has been inconsistent through out his tenure at Emirates, like Vermelan.
Cannot keep him in the same bucket as Kolo, Campbell, Gallas, Keown, Adams and Bould.
But he has been loyal to us and always given 110%.

Don't put Gallas in that list, Kos is miles ahead of Gallas. I'd have Holding ahead of Gallas and he's only really played half a season!

Too many fook ups now too slow he (sadly) is a liability, OK as a back up.

He is not ok as back up. He was back up this season, started a major cup final and was awful.

Koscielny and Monreal are past their prime. Sell Kolasinac, Mustafi, Ozil, Elneny,

I don't think we are going to have a lot of joy in the transfer market with the budget we have, but you are right, we need fresh players.

We need a first choice partner for sokratis (manolas?) and a younger CB to rotate (saliba?). All four (including Holding) will get game time as we rotate and often play a back five.

I'd spend the bulk of our budget on centre backs. We might even bring in enough from offloading kos and mustafi to cover the signing of saliba (offloading their wages would help too).
