5 players Arsenal should sell this summer 

#1 Hector Bellerin

Bellerin has not improved over the course of the season

This would perhaps be the most controversial player that Arsenal should consider selling given his reputation and his ability, but right now this should be an option that the club should very much consider. The Spanish right-back, by his standards, has had a very poor season, and even the previous season he was very average.

Consequently, due to his displays for Arsenal, he has been left out of the Spain squad for the World Cup in Russia, and rightly so when considering the competition for that right back berth.

Bellerin has enjoyed four seasons as the first choice right back for Arsenal, but his lack of ability defensively has really come in to question this season after the team, overall, has been poor and exposed further than we all had seen previously when it came to the Spaniard.

Stats show that Bellerin's interceptions per game and tackles per game have declined over the previous two seasons for the club.

At the age of 23 now, he is not considered a young player now, and with his experience especially in Europe he should be better defensively, that is unquestionable.

The really concerning aspect of his game right now is how indecisive he looks going forward, which is what he has built his reputation on with only five assists in his 43 appearances over the course of last season. This is not so much a decline in numbers for the fullback but shows that he is also not developing.

The player needs guidance and a chance to develop as a defender first, his inability to cover on the inside for his central defenders is very poor, players feel confident when they get in behind the full back and his discipline and work rate as a fullback has rightfully been questioned.

Undoubtedly, however, Bellerin has the talent to improve and with the right guidance could propel himself to certainly one of the best in the world in this position.

Right now though the big question for Arsenal, and the board will be should we cash in on the player? With clubs like Barcelona and Juventus being linked with big money moves for the right back, could they get the right money in to help rebuild what is a poor defence?

His future will undoubtedly come down to the player and he could force a move from the Emirates, but right now this would not be a bad thing for the player. A cheaper right back and in better form than Bellerin would be Cedric from Southampton, there should be a competitive market trying to gain the services of the Portugal international.
