Yes but this is arsernal we are talking about; they don't do things normally and seem to be permanently unstable
You would've thought Arsenal would want it done as soon as possible to allow them time to get in a replacement and let the dust settle. They wouldn't want their best players departure hanging over them as they go into a new season. It would start a new season with negativity around the club and they've had a fair amount of that this year.
