I think we can only safely say they're gone when they are really gone. It's our karma that with this manager, we are destined to have all these players no one wants and who we've realised we don't want either. How about a fire sale Arsene? Do a major ' spring clean ' once and for all. Getting some money from a discounted sale is surely better than years of keeping some players on the payroll. Come to think of it, we have deadwood not only amongst the playing staff...

I still think it better to let some players go for free - and allow other clubs to increase the wage offer from their savings.
All that will happen otherwise is these players will sit tight, contribute NOTHING to Arsenal, then walk for free on a Bosman at the end of their contracts.
Just get rid.
For some players it is even an option to PAY other teams to take them in order to get them off the wage bill.

I see no point in squabbling over nominal transfer fees. Lets just get rid and lower our wage bill.

I saw an article somewhere yesterday that mentioned that Sunderland are on a mass clear out and have gotten rid of 18 players thus far. 18 players ..... and we have only got rid of 2 or 3 .....

That's because they haven't paid ridiculous wages to youngsters and third string players. It would be easy to get rid of Bendtner for instance if he was on the £5k a week he should be (max.)

Just can not see this one happening. Arshavin, I think, will stay with us or go back home to Russia.

Ivan the terrible said that was key going forward - and to reduce the wages bill by £23m. BUT I don't trust that egghead!!!
