They've lost the spine of their team, they've lost their manager and they haven't replaced them adequately whilst they could still lose Schneiderlin and Rodriguez (who is going to miss the first couple of months of the season anyway).

They have lost their Chief Exec who was key to much of what they are doing, there's rumours of discontent amongst the academy and despite comments to the contrary they have an owner who looks like she's liquidising the assets before selling what's left.

If they're not in a relegation fight next season then Koeman deserves manager of the season....but my feeling is that they're in trouble.

I'm looking at their squad now and they still have a better team than a lot PL sides. Sure, they've lost their spine but as I said, they've replaced well. Tadic and Pelle are great replacements for

Lallana and Lambert. Koeman isn't a bad manager - Chambers won't be missed as they have Clyne. Bertrand is not a bad replacement for Shaw...

If you look at their potential starting XI right now it's not too bad at all, especially if they manage to hold onto Schneiderlin and Rodriguez:

Pelle

Tadic - Ward-Prowse - Rodriguez

Wanyama - Schneiderlin

Bertrand - New CB - Fonte - Clyne

New GK

Unless Koeman can't bring it together... This team is too strong to go down IMO. Still a lot stronger than half the PL teams out there. For me there is no threat of relegation for them.

Rodriguez is out injured until at least October in all likelihood. Schneiderlin has handed in a transfer request and Fonte is wanted by Cardiff.

The club is being torn apart not just on the pitch but also in the boardroom. On paper they have a decent team but there's so much turmoil at that club that you can't help but think they're going to be in trouble.

BREAKING: Howard Webb has retired & been appointed Technical Director of Professional Game Match Officials Limited.

Pretty surprising news. Best ref in football, for me.

Arsenal fans saying that they have a better team than us, how delusional can you be? I don't think that there is 1 player from their team that I'd like to have.

I'd take Sanchez, Ozil, Koscielny, Ramsey. Maybe Wilshere. They have good players.
