From Bad to Worse: Arsenal Left To Rue January Sale After Former Reject Excels In Ligue 1

You can't make this stuff up. Just when things couldn't seem to get any worse for Arsenal fans, it looks as though the club have made a big mistake in selling a 'reject' in January.

In the summer of 2014, Arsenal signed French full back Mathieu Debuchy from Newcastle for a fee believed to be around £12m. He spent four years at the Emirates, however, failed to ever leave his mark on the side.

After making 10 Premier League appearances in his debut season, he only went onto make another three in the next three seasons as he struggled to break into Arsene Wenger's side.
