Ok then how would we feel if he makes a demand - play me ahead of the Flaminal or I walk?

Would you play him or let him walk?

I have mixed feelings here really - on 1 hand he does mop up a lot of ball in front of the back 4 when we are under pressure but on the other hand some of the time he causes some of that pressure with his poor passes and his reluctance to drive into those 50/50 tackles when needed. I would be amazed if he ever went to wenger demanding anythinh though cos he just seems to be too nice a guy but I do feel that wenger will agree to let him go if bert asks. If it was my decision I would retain him cos with the small squad we have with little or no winning experience and the prospect of seeing more of song as well we just cannot afford to let him go.

His legs will go, so put him as a CB & flock Senderos off with Johan returning easy
By the end of the season he'll be worth half than he was at the start, just like Paddy & Thierry
I don't want him to go but i think he will leave & i for one will be gutted as i've got him on the back of the away shirt with him making less than 5 games

This is a strange one. On the one hand, I wouldn't really like to see him go, because he offers good leadership, calmness, experience, great positional play and versitality. However, I'm excited about seeing Fabregas/Diarra in the middle as I do believe it's the future for Arsenal.
