Arsenal chief Edu has conceded there was "no chance" the club could try and get transfer fees for the likes of Mesut Ozil, Willian and, most recently, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
The Gunners have found themselves in the unfortunate position of boasting an expensive, underperforming player on their books too many times than they'd care to admit in recent years. Even more recently, Arsenal have taken the unusual step of simply paying for these players in question to leave the Emirates before they sour the dressing room even further.
It is something Edu has discussed in a recent interview at a time when Arsenal finally appear to have culled the squad of the majority of their 'problem players' - those on high wages but contributing very little to the cause.
