OPINION
Shkodran Mustafi is a bit of a scapegoat when it comes to the Arsenal fans, and that was definitely no different in this 2-0 win over Southampton on Sunday. To be fair, he started the game rather well and did not make many mistakes, but it was his challenge in the second half that has obviously got this section of Gunners’ fans seething. One supporter remarked on how he must be axed in the summer, and based on his display, it is hard not to agree with them. His poor performances this season have certainly outweighed the good, and this is simply not good enough for a player playing for a team in the top six of the Premier League. It looks like Arsenal need to bring in a centre-back who is a lot more reliable and is not reckless as Mustafi, otherwise they will not be competing for trophies in the next campaign.
