Are you impressed with that last season midfield ??? and its not even the last season midfield, its the entire decline, but since I called out when we had Ozil and Sanchez, in 2014-15 we had:
Hot headed Shezza in goal, we had Coquelin and a dead Flamini anchoring the middle and a poor Ramsey. Now I didn't call out our attacking weaknesses but I will now, we had Giroud and Welbeck leading the line.
A season later we had the same again but we brought in Iwobi and Elneny ! Cazorla didn't get much game time, Ramsey was still shite.
In 2016/17 Kos was shit, Merts didn't play, replaced by Mustafi and Holding, Cazorla didn't get much game time, we brought in Xhaka, Coquelin and Elneny also got game time. FFS, Xhaka/Elneny/Coquelin, possibly the worst CM partnerships since Selley and Hillier ! Dreadful defence, dreadful midfield.
The final season under Wenger, you list a load of has-beens, players in woeful form and players that didn't get game time. Wilshere was shit, Cazorla didn't play, Mkhi was shit, Xhaka is shit, Ramsey was nothing special, Ozil had a poor season. It was a terrible midfield and an even worse defence because Cech was shit, Bellerin was shit, Monreal was in decline.
I can't even believe I am having this conversation.
