I'm with Augie on this. Buy a good AM(two footed no 10) and push him out on the wing ....Well done Arsene. But if you actually look at positions on the pitch(not that I'm making excuses), no.10 is probably the only postion where you can have a "lazy" player. The traditional 10 didn't have to track back to make any tackles, but when going forward, we needed his "two-footed-ness" to break down opposition, which Wenger didn't feel the need to exploit

I feel AA23 has made his own bed, but Wenger has added to it too

I feel Wenger assembled the bed but Arshavin made it.

How does that sound?

So metaphorically still wins?

Isn't the difference that this guy is out of contract at the end of the season, whereas our players have usually still had years to run on theirs?

Aren't they allowed to officially hold talks with other clubs from the January prior to their contracts being up?

Yeah they are but going public surely unsettles the player if these talks havent taken place
