How many away games have we won this season?
We have a worse defence than most midtable sides
We still have tons more quality. We also have 4 international defenders, who play for countries in the top 10 of the world. *shrug*
We dont have tons more quality. Normally 8 of our 11 is midtable 11 with 3 top players. Wenger believes in carrying players. How os xhaka, wilshete, el nenny or iwobi above miftable. I mean wilshere couldnt even standout in Bournemouth
We wanted Evans to start for us, in place of Mustafi as well. Top class 4 defenders, hilarious. Bellerin wouldn't start for half the midtable teams either.

Everything is important when playing at the top level of any sport. Even the smallest thing can give you the edge you need for victory.

Since it's about those who play for those teams, Monreal and Mertesacker are out straight away.
Bellerin is an international defender, if 3 appearances and no real chances of another count
Mustafi is third choice behind some real crap
Koscielny is the only real international class defender

Mustafi was injured for the last round of international fixtures in November
He played in the previous round in October
As did monreal
Bellerin is 22
Up until last June he was playing for Spain under 21
Mertesacker is retired

Elneny is what he is; an average footballer at best. There's no reason to set a high bar for him.
