I'd say we're likely to finish mid table you can't replace players like fabregas and nasri with lansbury and henderson. The fact is most of the youth prospect that look good in the CC etc don't end up reaching what they are built up to be. Look at vela, bendtner, denilson when they were tearing teams up in the CC we thought they were going to be world beaters yet all 3 have struggled to make an impression on the first team

Tbh the only first teamer you mentioned that i really want to keep is cesc. If nasri went i would be happy if we buy a like-for-like replacement with the money, somebody more suited to the wing. As for the youngsters, i think bartley could do a better job than squillaci, lansbury/coquelin could do a better job than denilson, and luke freeman/afobe couldnt be much worse than bendtner. This is more a critisism of our first teamers than an appraisal of our youngsters though
If our big players leave wenger needs to get the replacements right or we will drop out of the top 4 which i think the fans know which is why everyone is desperate for any news
Not yet. If Toral, Bellerin, Aneke, Bunjuku, Afobe, Miyaichi, Bartley, Gibbs, Jenkinson, W.Silva all push on then maybe.
Yeah, I'd mind big time! Like everyone I'm wondering what on Earth Wenger is planning to do.
Next season it's likely to be probably the most competetive season in England we've seen probably since the Prem began.
By "push on" I mean become world class, which won't happen.
Please make Gibbs your first choice left back
Signed
Every premier league right winger
Bartley will be at Ibrox next season
We forget already that a midfield of Wilshere, Ramsey and Song beat Manuers just a couple of months ago.
Chesney
Sanga, JD, TV, Gibbs
Song, Wishere, Ramsey,
Walcott ,RVP, Chamack
Thats a pretty good starting IX
--------------Martinez--------
Jenkinson--Bartley--Miquel--Pedro Botelho
-------------Frimpong---Coquelin------
Lansbury---------------------------Miyaichi
----------------Wellington Silva-------------
--------------------------Afobe--------------
That is basically a team of players on the edge of the squad. Pre-season could be massive for all of them, as they could prove to Wenger they are ready to step up.
Pedro Botelho, Bartley, Frimpong and Lansbury are the closest, imo.
Sadly Coquelin will miss pre-season as he is playing for the French u-20s, otherwise he would be in with a great chance of taking Denilsons squad position. Ryo and Silva will need a work permit first.
And that is without JET, Eastmond, Freeman, Aneke and others.
