We are so cheap.

We're going to swap a player who out on the market is worth £90m, more if he was younger for this guy?


Wenger is in a constant state of "building teams" or "building players" he never actually has a competing team, we're constantly selling our best and replacing them with "players with potential".

We are now a feeder club who lives off lower feeder clubs, while our Ozil's, Sanchez's, Fabregas's, RVP's, Nasri, Adebayor all move on to big clubs leaving us with the Ramsey's and Welbeck's of the world.


Fekir for Sanchez is not good enough imo. Fekir for Ozil might work providing Fekir can stay fit and we can make changes to accommodate him coming in. we can then bring in someone better for Sanchez.

All this doesn't matter anyway because we probably won't sign him considering the other teams interested

Do you have anybody in mind for that?


I’m not a scout but Any forward who has a good scoring record, is full of energy, and can at the very least dribble.

I’d prefer someone like Isco but if not him then others who come to mind are dybala, griezmann, James, whoever’s out of favor between sterling and Sane, any of coutinho/mane/Salah, Martial, insigne, Carrasco, Mahrez, lemar, Dembélé

I realize we don’t have snowballs chance in hell getting some of these players but the same can be said about fekir

He has everything except that quick acceleration for me. I fear that is what will stop him from being elite

Arsenal squad set for huge shake-up as plans for a busy summer begin with 10 players heading into June unsure of their future, including Alexis Sanchez, Mesut Ozil and Jack Wilshere

Arsenal are preparing for one of the biggest overhauls in Arsene Wenger's reign
Ten first team players will head into the summer with their futures uncertain
A host of players have already been lined up to replace those who will leave
BETTING GUIDE: Top tips for this weekend's action, including Man City v Spurs


Arsenal are gearing up for one of the biggest squad overhauls in Arsene Wenger's 21-year reign.

The Gunners — led by newly appointed head of recruitment Sven Mislintat — have already started planning what will almost certainly be an extremely busy summer of incomings and outgoings.

As many as 10 first team players will head into the summer with their futures uncertain, and scouts are already working on their replacements.

Mislintat's knowledge of Germany, having worked with Borussia Dortmund prior to his arrival at Arsenal, has seen the club intensify their scouting resources in the Bundesliga.

Indeed, Sportsmail can reveal Mainz's Abdou Diallo and Wolfsburg's Ohis Felix Uduokhai are two central defenders already earmarked to replace club captain Per Mertesacker, who will join Arsenal's academy in a coaching capacity at the end of the season.

Nice midfielder Jean Michael Seri is also on the club's radar. Intriguingly, Barcelona failed with a £36million offer for the Ivory Coast international last summer in a swoop that was fronted by Raul Sanllehi - who has since joined Arsenal in the role of head of football relations.

Alexis Sanchez is almost certain to leave Arsenal in either next month's transfer window or on a free at the end of the season.

Arsenal, it is understood, are keen to offload Sanchez in January with sources claiming the Chilean is proving a disruptive figure off the field.

Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain are both set to bid for Sanchez next month.

The Gunners are trying to prevent Mesut Ozil from running down his deal, but if the club fail to agree an extension the Germany star will also leave for nothing in the summer.

Lyon's Nabil Fekir, who has impressed Arsenal's French-based scout Gilles Grimandi, is a candidate to replace Ozil if he goes.

The club are trying to convince Danny Welbeck and Aaron Ramsey to sign new long-term deals in the coming months as they enter the final year of their respective contracts.

However, new deals for the pair are far from certain meaning the club could be forced to listen to offers in the summer to not risk losing the duo for nothing in 2019.

There are major fears over whether Santi Cazorla will ever play again — let alone for Arsenal — following his latest setback from an Achilles injury. The Spaniard's existing deal expires in the summer.

Jack Wilshere, who is keen to stay, has six months left on his current deal but hasn't even been formally approached about an extension leaving him free to leave in June.

There are also doubts over the long-term futures of Olivier Giroud and Theo Walcott, who are growing frustrated at their lack of regular first team opportunities.

Walcott is already on the radar of Everton and Southampton. Mathieu Debuchy is also set to leave the club in the next two transfer windows.

All that points to one of the most extensive recruitment drives in Wenger's reign.

Mislintat and Sanllehi, who will officially start work on February 1, were both appointed well in advance of the summer to ensure they could make early progress on the summer rebuilding job.

In his role as manager, Wenger is used to having the final decision on the club's transfer policy.

But while Wenger retains the role of boss, it remains to be seen whether his power is diluted due to the new administrative arrivals.

Sounds interesting. Intriguing time to be an Arsenal fan. I know short term it looks like we are going to lose our best two players, but then look at the others. Mertesacker gone, kos, Cech, Nacho, Cazorla, Giroud all getting on now. We have a massive transition phase coming up. Feel we have the right staff in place for it with the exception of Wenger.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has identified Lyon midfielder Nabil Fekir as his number one summer target. Wenger is willing to sanction a £45m bid for the 24-year-old Frenchman. (Mail)

Why are we mostly linked with attacking players (Malcolm, Werner, Fekir )

Midfield and defence are the bigger problems now

Our back up attacking players are horrendous tbh. Ship out Welbeck, Iwobi and Nelson and bring in those 3

Fekir is a superb player. He'd instantly start on our right flank.

I can see us buying Fekir for Laca plus cash. I'd think Lacazette would kill to go back to his old team after his horror ahow here.

Why? Why can’t we have Auba and Laca? United have Lukaku, Zlatan, Rashford and Martial. City have Aguero and Jesus. That’s how big clubs function. They have multiple top end players for the same position. We should stop this small club mindset and feeling sorry for Laca. He needs to up his game and start competing with Auba.

We don't have the same ownership structure as Utd and CIty obviously and make daft transfer decisions all the time. We sold Alexis to Utd for an out of favour AM when we could have sold to City for 60m 5 months ago. We sold two 100 goal forwards to Top 6 clubs while still hanging on to Welbeck. Nothing about Arsenal's track record says Lacazette will be hanging around.

Aguero and Jesus combined cost 60m and Guardiola plays them together. PEA and Laca cost 100m combined and Laca is benched when PEA on the pitch. That's why he'll leave and that's why we'll sell him.
