Not Welbeck, Ramsey, the player who might force Emery to the transfer market revealed

Earlier before now, it has been reported that North London side Arsenal might be forced to the winter transfer window which reopens in coming days with the injury suffered by English striker Danny Welbeck and the expected exit of Wales international Aaron Ramsey.

But these players might not be the reason why the Gunners will be involved in transfer dealing according to the North London legend Alan Smith who thinks shaky defender Shkodran Mustafi could be replaced.

The Gunners legend described Shkodran Mustafi as being erratic and looking unfit for the Arsenal team as he praised Rob Holding for leaving up to expectation and providing the cover needed.

Alan Smith says Unai Emery might consider the transfer window because he cannot trust the German international to hold the defence until the end of the season.

The Gunners legend is obviously not impressed with the Arsenal defender giving the hint that the player has been the soft spot in the North London defence.

However, the Arsenal team have been praised to have returned back to winning ways after a terrible last season having gone 17 games unbeaten this season across all competition as they now sit fifth, with just one point away from the top four.
