    What is going on at this club, there's this Wengeresque quality about Arteta where he seems to make the oddest decisions.
    i dont think we can play Saliba at all, thought he was left out of the rosters. Perhaps he isnt as good as Arteta hoped. Although he is still young.

    you cant criticise for selecting ozil and criticise for not selecting him. we have to move on from ozil depressing that we cant even get rid on loan although i imagine ozil doesnt want to move so unless chelsea came in for him then he aint moving. we should just come to some sort of arrangement to make him a free agent. even pay up 50% of his last year of contract.

    If we can't play Saliba at all it's a shocker to be honest, another mistake.

    they seem to have zero faith in him, it's wierd - either he really is a fail or he's another one who won't run round Artetas traffic cones, in which case he can kiss his career goodbye

    This is a player who was the mainstay of his former teams backline for 2 seasons and they desperately wanted to keep him. Given how hapless our defending has been until gabriel showed up I wouldnt write off the kid. Our defensive coaches are toilet. Is it Merts doing the coaching. WTF is being smoked up there in Colney?

    Saliba is in the Prem squad but not Europa. Bit weird tbh, would have thought he’d be able to settle in easily playing against the shit in our group.

    Maybe it’s just down to being unsettled after the move, he is only 19 after all. Hope he isn’t a wet lettuce like Reyes was though.

    Just as worrying and baffling is the news floating about that we offered Mustafi a contract extension in the summer which he apparently turned down. Laughable stuff to be honest, both in that we offered an extension and he turned it down.

    What does Mustafi have on Arteta?

    Yeah Arteta wants to keep him on and Mustafi is not happy with his 90k a week and wants 120k apparently. 1k extra for each error he's made over the last season.

    Arteta says he's very happy with him and contractual discussions are going on, clearly he's told the board to re-sign him.

    Here we were looking forward to not having to see this calamity play for us at the end of the season when he's out of contract, but no Arteta wants to keep him, it's a joke to be honest.
