The collection of everyone leaving has me wanting Wenger to go, unless he does a massive reversal and spends some real money on players who are not 17 or under.
As it stands right now I’m not too worried but I’m keeping the panic button within reach. With Cesc, he wants to go back home, and with Nasri, it is starting to look like he is a mercenary. Even so, when your best players start leaving things must be done. In the current case, we need to replace them or else we will have to start asking questions. When players like RvP and Wilshere start to hand in transfer requests, then we will certainly be in danger.
