9 Arsenal thoughts 1. The common reaction to a player potentially leaving is to find a transfer to replace him.

Build your Arsenal 20/21 squad! What if you were the decision maker this summer? Sell Bellerin or trust him to find his game? Patience with Guendouzi or cash in to find a different profile?
