The Arsenal fans inside the Transfer Tavern have taken their eyes off the results in recent weeks, due to their disappointing season, and have instead worked their way through our cocktail menu and our speciality beers.
Our landlord has found the results pretty amusing and with the bank holiday weekend approaching, he’s expecting some more antics over the next few days and raised an intriguing question to the local punters.
Footballers these days are often criticised for being out of touch with fans, so our landlord asked the Arsenal fans which members of their squad they’d love to party with and why.
In the end, the results sound like something we could really get behind and we’re going to try and blag our way into Arsenal’s end of season party, although the drinking taking place there would probably be more out of commiseration than celebration.
Hit the image below to see FIVE Arsenal players we’d love to party with!

Jack Wilshere
Young midfielder Jack Wilshere has earned himself a reputation of being a bit of a party animal, having recently being snapped after a scuffle in a London nightclub, although there’s no evidence he was involved in the clash, and he’s no stranger to a smoking controversy either.
Young, with money to spend and having a lot of free time due to his injury record, it’s hardly surprising to see Wilshere enjoying the nightlife and he certainly seems like one of the lads- the sort of guy who’d walk over with a paddle of shots for everyone for no apparent reason.
He’s the guy you’ll love during the night but come the hangover in the morning, he’ll be your worst enemy.
Wojciech Szczesny
Much like Jack Wilshere, although not as much of a high-profile, goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny has also found himself as the centre of a smoking controversy in the past, lighting one up in the changing rooms after a defeat to Southampton and subsequently being dropped.
Now on-loan at Roma, Szczesny seems like the sort of friend that you haven’t seen for a while but when he turns up, it’s like he’s never been away. Given his displays in goal for the Gunners at times though, don’t rely on this man to bring over your drinks without dropping them everywhere.
Olivier Giroud
Olivier Giroud is a fine specimen of a man, if I do say so myself, and he’s earned himself a reputation as a ladies man. With a fine jawline, slick hair and smart beard, Giroud is the ultimate wingman for a night out- although you should be aware that you’ll look like a trolls wart in comparison.
Still, let Giroud lead the way with the discussions with the ladies and sweep in to look cool enough to grab a lass of your own- just don’t get upset if you regularly find yourself with the fat best friend whilst Giroud takes home the ten’s.
Danny Welbeck
Good old Danny Welbeck. The golden child of Sir Alex Ferguson was ousted by Louis Van Gaal but has found a new home for himself in London. Whilst he’s struggled with injury problems since moving to the Gunners, he’s certainly made an impression.
Welbeck would certainly fit in as the life and soul of any party, busting his moves on the dance-floor and having a positive outlook on the night out no matter how crap it truly is. He’s the type of lad that likes the limelight on the dance-floor and he definitely has his own move.
Gabriel Paulista
Just look at the Brazilian defender, he’s certainly not someone you’d want to get on the wrong side of. However, he does genuinely seem like a nice guy and we imagine he’d be a laugh at the end of season party- and not just because he struggles with English.
Gabriel is the dodgy-sort of guy you’d expect to walk over with some bizarre concoction of drinks that he tried during a stint in Magaluf. It tastes like paint thinner but it’s certainly enough to get you over the edge and you don’t need to worry about getting intro trouble, as Gabriel looks like he’d tear a head of a baby if it annoyed him.
