Hello Ed,

With Stoke being relegated, do you see Shaqiri leaving?

Is he a player we might be interested in?

Love and respect,

{Ed001's Note - yes, depends on the new man but you have shown no interest in helping him pick his toys up off the floor so far.}

Why would we want to sign him?
It's our midfield and defence that needs sorting out well before we think of attacking options.

Love it Ed!

Agree we need GK and defense settled first, but I think Iwobi could benefit from an experienced wide man to learn from / rotate with.

{Ed001's Note - he would be an excellent rotation option for Iwobi, he does about as much in a game as JJ's nephew.}

Mo Farah is a Gooner let Iwobi pick up some habits from him then he might actually become worth consideration for selection.

Don't really get why people hate Iwobi so much, he's been stagnating a little but there's still a decent player in there. Definitely a solid squad rotation option for the likes of Ozil and Mkhi, and meets the homegrown quota.

Wire, he's a clown and that all he will ever be. Arsenal will never go anywhere with the likes of iwobi, bellerin or xhaka, they are so poor and do nothing.

Steve, your'e always sitting on the fence, I would love for you to speak your mind for a change! :)

Maybe I'm old school but hatred for our own never sits right with me. I'll show myself out.

Wire, being loyal to your own is admirable but that doesn't win you anything. EG LOL i want this team to do well, i can't stand the fact that we aren't and that's down to players that are just not up to it. The truth is some of pur players are the reason we are now looking for a new manager and we are in 6th. I am not loyal to dross but i am to real quality. Some players are steeling money from this club and i hope the new guy sees it. i'm sure he will.

I am a bit more mixed on these players as in my heart I would love to see them all do well in our shirt, but you know deep down that there is nothing different between them and all the other nearly players we have had in the team over the years, if they weren't playing for us, they would probably be a nothing special player plying their trade at a smaller club in another league, just like a Vela, Gnabry, or Reyes etc. I mean that they all go on to be OK players for their standard, but they certainly don't set the world alight wherever they end up, and as Steve says, we need more than that if we are to compete at our level. In Economics you have a wonderful thing called opportunity cost, in that its not what taking option A gives you, its more by taking A, what is the cost of not taking option B or C etc. IMO, this is exactly the principal every club should take with their transfers, and their existing personnel. So sadly, I just see the likes of Iwobi as our current option A, and the longer they stay, I fear it stops us getting to option B or C. In real terms this means no squad space (or financial resources) to go sign players who may really make a difference, or no real opportunity for other promising players currently further down the pecking order, such as a Maitland-Niles or Rene-Adelaide.

Agree totally Steve, we have players that just shouldn’t be at Arsenal

On another how the hell can Wenger say he is leaving the club in great shape? Ermmmm no your not, prior to the last home game the stadium was half empty, our worst seat run since 1966 and leaving the new Manager a rebuilding job. bloody dreamer.

Bannury, worst away run, worst season, worst defence, worse points, worse midfield under his tennure and he's leaving us in great shape. Why is he going?
