BBC Sport reports that Arsene is ready to let Mathieu Flamini leave after the season. He is nowhere near as ready as I am. The guy has been rubbish all season. Hopefully he and Hleb can find their way to the airport on the Tube and we can put these unmotivated, soulless creatures behind us.

Flamini has started nine games in the Premiership this season. Eleven substitute appearances are probably down to his ability to play in a number of positions. He has scored three Premiership goals.
Rosicky and Hleb have three Premiership goals between them from forty-one starts and nine substitute appearances.
On those stats, Flamini is better than the two of them combined. Statistics are never the full story but he doesn’t deserve to be called rubbish nor described as unmotivated and soulless. His goals meant a lot to him.
The reason he is leaving is he is just not quite good enough to hold down a regular place in central midfield and he is unwilling to fulfill the utility role that Wenger wants him to.

I’m glad he’s leaving, he’s practically useless - just another player out on the pitch.
Goals don’t paint the full picture, how many goals have we conceded because Flamini missed a challenge, bundled someone over, misplace a pass or was so anonymous that it was like playing with 10 men?

You guys should read Brave New World - it might explain a bit
