We can only hope Flamini follows suit. It will be the best addition by subtraction deal in recent years.
I have never been a fan of Flamini. I think he has barely ever reproduced the form he showed for the first half of 2007-08 but we need another body in midfield if he goes.
I'd rather not see Flamini on the field, it's like playing with 10 men and whatever, but he is another midfielder and I do think just Ramsey, Coquelin, Arteta and Cazorla aren't enough given our injury troubles and the number of games we will play.
Wenger confirmed today that Wilshere will definitely play further forward. There is no one in the youth ranks either. We are taking a massive gamble if we are going into the season with just the aforementioned 4 players as our choices for central midfield.
