We will have a very hard time attracting top players once Sanchez and Ozil leave. We have a hard time getting them here as it is.
You think quality players would want to come to this club to play with Welbeck and Iwobi up front and Xhaka/Elneny/Ramsey midfield?
I have been saying it...we needed to keep these two and add at least two more WC players. You add to them. You dont replace them.
Instead we will be losing both and adding no one.

Telegraph's sport headline today is about Ozil flopping again. We're the only club where individual players are blamed repeatedly (and none of them are English players by any chance) over the manager.
If Ozil has to go in January, so be it. If Alexis is sold, so be it. We're not playing them either way. There's no point keeping them, especially since Ozil, more importantly, will be primed and hounded for any Arsenal mishap from here until the end of the season.
Just leave, Mesut.

Özil has never been the engine room of any football team. He’s no Patrick Vieira who can single-handedly take a game by the scruff of the neck. He is the luxury , stick him in the right environment, in the right position, with the right players around him, and there very few if any better No 10s in the world

Since joining Arsenal he has created more chances (401), more big chances (51) and provided more assists (42) than any other Premier League player and its basically the same story this season.Before the Chelsea game he'd created 15 clear cut scoring opportunites this season, again the highest by anone this season.
Finding a way to reinforce the midfield is key to extracting better performances from Ozil and we will reap the rewards,not to hit his confidence by criticising him all the time. People need to get off his back and actually value what he CAN bring to the team.

This is why I believe an Ozil, martial swap would be an excellent deal for all parties (assuming we intend to compete seriously moving forward). Ozil would be in a team capable of easily building the team around him; Martial would be in a team where he’d not only be starting most games but most likely be idolized; United would get one of if not the best creative players around; We would get a player who could do a job without really relying too much on whoever’s playing around him.
It’s a Win-win-win-win. And, tbh, it doesn’t even need to be martial. We could trade with any team that is capable of spending big every window, needs a creative player, and has a decent, hard working player they wouldn’t mind letting go
