Seriously if true, what the fuck is the point of a loan deal for a player like Mustafi ??

Honestly what the fuck is Wenger doing?! I could maybe understand selling him but loaning him out?!
Absolute madness

Reality is, like always, if you donāt loan players out, we have plenty of options in most positions, just not enough good ones.

Dean reckons itās a compulsary buy at the end of the loan with most of the funds being re-couped.
Wenger tried him as CB in pre-season because he already wanted to sell Mustafi 
We donāt need a defense or a solid midfield guys. Relax.

It would be a good plan to sell him if the idea was to go with Koscielny and Holding a the starting CB pair in a four, keep Bielik and develop him like Holding last season, and have Monreal and Mertesacker as emergency options behind them. Kolasanic and Monreal as options at LB and BellerĆn at RB, weād need to sign a RB too, but this is all obviously theoretical because none of these things Iām suggesting are going to happen. 
I expected 3 at the back to be done by Jan or Feb, wouldnāt surprise me if itās not even made it to September.

But do you think we could do any better than getting our money back for him? Basically makes last summers window a complete waste and a huge setback.
We could start to play like old Stokeā¦ batten down the hatches and hoof the ball forward to Ollieā¦ Kola, Xhaka, Le Coq can batter some peopleā¦ yep, solid plan.
Thatās more or less the norm for Arsenal windows under Wenger for many years now but at least we got Holding last summer.
AMN can be back up right back
Niles is very poorā¦

And the only reason for that is Wengerās shitness rather than anything being wrong with the formation. Itās a piss take seeing as when he played the right players in their actual positions it clearly worked.
Iāve liked the look of him from what Iāve seen to be honest
Over the years he has impressed me - I think people are perhaps overreacting to his horrid performance in the latest U23 against Cityā¦ he was misplacing passes and was pretty terribleā¦ hard to say with him. It isnāt the worst option as back-up to Bellerin - and Le Coq can slot in at RB in a pinch as well.
I think our issue right now is stick or twist on the 3 at the back and squad/players not suited and/or not adjustedā¦ we are giving away goals for fun and it isnāt all on our calamitous CM.
