Clearing the deadwood – Which Arsenal players should Unai Emery look to sell?

Arsenal officially announced Unai Emery as Arsene Wenger’s successor on Wednesday and presented him to the media.

The Spaniard has a big job on his hands to transform the squad from a sixth-placed side into a title competing one.

Wenger was at the helm for 22 years, so every single player was signed by him and was made to follow his philosophy.

Emery now has to make the squad his own and enforce his own philosophies and beliefs on the club as a whole.

The 46-year-old already knows about the squad he is inheriting, speaking to the BBC, Arsenal chief executive Ivan Gazidis said:

He was extraordinarily well prepared with a knowledge of Arsenal and an analysis of all of our players, their qualities and how he can help them develop.

This means the former PSG man will have an idea of which players he would like to stay and which he would like to sell.

We’ve taken a look at which players we believe the new man should look to move on in this window…
