I said a little while ago that I see no reason Moussa Sissoko can't play DCM for us so it was interesting to hear Phillipe Auclair wax lyrical about him on the last Arsecast Friday.

He pretty much said he can play anyway...even centre forward. He said we've been actually linked with him too.....

Ashley is always open to decent business so why not? Also he is forever linked with everybody buy Hummels is bisto and I'd bet the farm that like Lahm (rhyming unintentional here) he can play DCM too.

The pair of them would cost next summers budget but I bet we wouldn't be whorishly trying to sort out our defence like twits for a while.....

I know Wenger doesn't like to over subscribe instruction but the pair of them take it pretty well. As did Arteta once upon a time.

Wenger cant and wont fix the problems in Defence or Central Midfield. The issues are both personnel & technical/tactical. I personally think its beyond him to fix them properly. Ive been looking at all the rumours today and our strongest link is Tyrone Mings of Ipswich, seems fairly realistically to me, but it wont solve a thing, just another promising young talent who will be shifted all over the place due to our injury problems and lack of depth in certain positions. The Schneiderlin rumours are interesting but I very much doubt we will be prepared to pay the market rate for him & to be honest, I am not even sure Wenger sees him as first choice.
