Arsenal’s Summer Clearout

As the season ends and the transfer wind creaks opens, reports on player movement’s sky rocket. It seems every player is linked somewhere else regardless of when they signed and the season they’ve had. For Arsenal fans 2015/16 was an ultimately disappointing season. A second place finish is our highest in over a decade but most fans feel we should have won the title as our main rivals faltered. So looking on to 2016/17 which players should move on and make way for fresh new talent to improve the side?

Three players, one spot – who should be our first choice right back?

With three very good right backs in the squad there is a tough decision to make as to who should be first choice, second choice and who should be sent away. Strong reports are linking Carl Jenkinson with an imminent return to West Ham for another season long loan spell. The Englishman has had a mixed time at Arsenal but is that the right decision? Does it make more sense to give Hector Bellerin a loan spell as a first choice right back, or should the young talent be Arsenal’s first choice? And where does all this leave fit again Debuchy? The stats below help to give a meaningful comparison.
