Mikel Arteta has been urged to move on six players from his Arsenal squad by former player Alan Smith.
The Gunners showed their potential last term, running Manchester City closer than anyone which has led to renewed optimism in north London. Arsenal's impressive campaign also means they have returned to the Champions League after a lengthy period away.
Arteta has already bolstered his squad with the capture of Kai Havertz. Declan Rice and Jurrien Timber are set to follow, but several players must leave to balance the books with almost £200m spent on the aforementioned trio. Highly-rated youngster Folarin Balogun could pay the price as a result.
