what situation? i'm sure it's evident by now that the club doesn't have much say in the matter. they're both quality CB's with excellent mobility who are good on the ball. if barca wants one of them, and they fancy life on the spanish riviera playing for the best team in the world, then we will end up selling. puyol's old, which leaves pique, mascherano and song.
how am i scaremongering? create a list of the best arsenal players of the last 7 yrs and then cross off the ones we've sold. verm and kos are the best players we have left. unless we change club management, then once wilshere gets to the point where he can reasonably ask for superstar wages, we'll probably lose him too (you're right, this is assuming he gets back to normal). chamberlain would follow soon afterward.
