Bit odd that Wenger tinkers with the LB and RB personnel every summer. I don't know much about Ghoulam, what's he going to bring?
I don't think we are signing him or any other FB this summer, for that exact thing you mention, Ev.
Ghoulam is 6 years younger than Monreal and a better prospect than Gibbs. It makes sense to bring him in. What doesn't make sense is selling your current starting leftback in order to do it.
What Klaus said. On the Nacho vs Gibbs debate - Monreal is a footballer, he's better than Gibbs by default.

And me Dreamy. ;D
Luckily, we don't need you happy for the team to perform. If that were the case, then we would probably be in the Conference. 😉
Flamini's in the squad all's right with the world Rex. 🙂

If this is you happy I would hate to see you when you're miserable 😆
You're dreamy enough, you <3
Rumours of Flamini being wanted by Galatasaray, we have agreed to sell, possible medical in the next 48h.
Please, gods ...
I want him gone regardless of whether or not he's replaced. There's about 9 or 10 midfield combinations I'd go with before I'd even want to see him on the pitch but if he stays Wenger would use him the moment Coq and Arteta go down.
Flamini's pending departure is reminder of how weak we are in defensive midfield. Arteta is not a credible option

I'd rather see Wilshere in defensive midfield than Flamini.
I'd rather we played with 10 men than see Flamini on the pitch.
I think Flamini is pretty irrelevant to be honest. Keep him in the stands for another year if he's good for squad morale; I don't really care. It's the prospect of signing a replacement that makes his departure exciting news to me. I think the odds just became a little lower considering we've gutted Diaby from the wage bill too this summer.
Javi Martinez!
