I'll tell you one thing, after the season we've had I don't think Arsene will get away with selling Clichy & Nasri on the cheap and losing Fabregas.

There will be an absolute outcry. Arsene is in a very precarious position right now, if we lose our better players he's going to need to replace them with REAL quality to even keep the fans moderately happy. The knives are already out in force due to our poor end to the season and season ticket price hike, no amount spin from Arsene or the Board will convince fans of anything. You cannot repeatedly replace your best players with youth prospects and you certainly can't keep rebuilding the team every 2 or 3 seasons.

This summer is now Arsene's most important of his reign, there is no doubt about that.
