4 Arsenal players on thin ice before the summer transfer window
With this in mind, the fringe Arsenal players should look to impress between now and the end of the season, if they wish to keep their place in the squad. Here are the 4 Arsenal players who are on thin ice heading into the summer transfer window...

Zinchenko had a tremendous season last time out but he has slowly fallen out-of-favour this season. The Ukraine international has gone from hero to zero in this Arsenal squad and it's difficult to pinpoint an exact moment where that happened. Instead, it is an amalgamation of moments which have built up to frustrate Arteta to the point of replacing him in the starting lineup.
