'Mustafi a waste of £42m & Arsenal have a bottom-six defence'

The former Gunners star has praised the job Unai Emery has managed to do with a squad that continues to spring alarming leaks at the back

Unai Emery has done a “remarkable job” at Arsenal, says Charlie Nicholas, with the Gunners boss working with a “bottom-six defence” that includes £42 million ($55m) flop Shkodran Mustafi.

As things stand, the north London outfit remain in contention for a top-four finish in the Premier League and Europa League glory.

Progress at home and aboard has been built around creative flair and attacking intent, with the likes of Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang leading the charge.
