Not quite good enough for a mid table prem team but decent enough for a relegation candidate or decent Championship side.

Agree with DJ, particularly around Holding, haven't got a clue about Bielek.

If we do go back to a back four next year, he won't be in the squad for sure.

Performed pretty well at Boro. But looks a bit weak and doesn't exude confidence.
Interesting to see how he would do in a back 3.
Jury very much out, and despite neither playing in the aforementioned U21s tournament, I think Holding and Bielik have higher ceilings of potential.

Decent bid and I would be tempted.

Disagree....learned a lot at Boro and looks like he is going into the right direction. We invested 15M for him and should keep him. He deserve a chance.

I'd keep him as its still early to rite him off.

Kos aint getting any younger.
Has Per retired?
Gabby - Pure donkey.
Mustafi - Should be able to judge him better in his 2nd season.
Holding - Young talent.

Sell/loan him next season

Don't think we'd regret letting go of him. If he left he'd just have a decent PL career like Upson. Won't come back to haunt us or play for another top team

My view is our best CB's are Kos, Mustafi and Holdiing. Monreal is up there in a back 3 and Chambers is behind them. To have a chance of appearances for us he needs to at least push his way ahead of Mert and Gabby in the pecking order.

But with Mert at 32, Kos and Monreal at 31 he has a chance to develop for a couple more years to try to force his way into the team. I dont know how long is left on his contract, maybe we would be better off just cashing in for what we can get for him this or next summer.

Don't rate him, never have. I would sell him while we can still get good money for him.

Looked promising at Southampton but didn't understand why you went for him over Clyne. Had a relatively good season at Boro, but I think a team like that plays to his strengths, think he has consistently looked poor for Arsenal.

He panics unnecessary on the ball and without it. As a result, this won't allow him to make it at top level football, so i would see us accepting a good deal for him if a team turns up.

We should do this for some of our current players who don't offer anything for the club now like Debuchy, Jenkinson, J.Campbell, and Perez (not used).
