Time to rip it up…

[Coast94]

This summer's our most crucial in years... it feels like a real sliding doors moment. Silva's tenure's stuttered to a limp end and whoever succeeds him will inherit a squad in dire need of an overhaul.

Too many players have become 'comfortable' - satisfied picking up a handsome wage, while having a kick around with their ex-Arsenal mates. We need more grit. Time after time we've stumbled when the going gets tough. Squandered strong positions. The year's been no different. For all the supposed attacking talent on our books, our output's quite frankly pathetic.

I'd like to see the following leave the club in the next window. Probably fanciful, seeing as most of them are tied down to long, well-paying deals, but here we are:

Andersen - Continues to let the club down in the big moments. Unacceptable for an apparent 'leader' and senior player. Bournemouth was the final straw. I'd happily see him never play for us again.

Reed - Nothing against him, but simply way below the required level. A good Championship player that should've been moved on years ago.

Berge - Never has such a big unit had so little presence on the field. Often weak in the challenge. Allergic to passing forwards or shooting. Constantly slows things down for no apparent reason.

ESR - Where to start? 0 assists all season from the key number 10 role speaks volumes. A non-entity of a player. Shows flashes, but lacks craft and guile. Hasn't really improved. Part of the Arsenal 'cosey club'. We all expected so much more when we signed him. Hugely underwhelming given his price tag.

Muniz - 1 goal all season. 1. Injuries or not, that's a pitiful return for our main number 9. Hasn't had the greatest service, but barely gets in a position to impact games. Matches often pass him by. Technically very poor. Not good enough and needs replacing.

Kevin almost made this list, but I'm inclined to give him more time. Same for Bobb.
