Garth Crooks has suggested that Theresa May should give Arsene Wenger a call to aid with Brexit talks after his work in landing ‘singing of the season’ Sead Kolasinac.
The Bosnia international, who the equaliser before setting up Aaron Ramsey’s winner against Swansea on Saturday, was named in the Bundesliga Team of the Season last term and has gone on to impress in the early stages of his Arsenal career.
His summer arrival from Schalke, on a free transfer, has proved fine business from the Gunners manager and Crooks claims that the 24-year-old ‘must’ already be the signing of the season and proves wrong the ‘know it all’ Arsenal fans who take exception to Wenger’s summer business.
“I was very impressed with Sead Kolasinac when Arsenal played Chelsea at Stamford Bridge earlier in the season and he has since become a regular feature in the Gunners set-up,” Crooks wrote after naming the wing-back in his team of the week.
“Kolasinac only joined the club at the beginning of the season, and on a free transfer, which really does knock the stuffing out of all those Arsenal 'know it all' supporters who have been caning Arsene Wenger for not spending millions on players the manager thinks are not worth it.
“Kolasinac must be the signing of the season and he already looks like a player who has won the respect and admiration of his team-mates.
“The goal he scored against Swansea was well taken, but the move and assist for Aaron Ramsey to score was just fabulous football from the Bosnia-Herzegovina international.

“To find yourself so far up the field in open play is one thing but having the composure to handle matters so effectively is something entirely different.
“If Wenger is free during the international break, perhaps Theresa May might ask the Arsenal manager if he could conduct the Brexit negotiations with European chief negotiator Michel Barnier.”
