Following the announcement, some fans have taken to the micro-blogging site, Twitter to express their views. Many are of the opinion that the club is yet to reach new deal agreements with key players such as Captain Aubameyang and winger Saka.
Others are of the belief that if Arsenal continues on the current trajectory, the club might even be relegated to the Championships.

Cedric is 29 this summer, hasn’t played a game for Arsenal in six months on loan (£1m loan fee), and has signed a four-year contract. Someone’s getting paid; and someone’s getting taken for a ride. Which is which: TBC.https://t.co/RZUJIPmiVR

Cedric Soares has never played a game for Arsenal = Rewarded with a new contract
David Luiz has been a liability since he joined Arsenal and just last week cost us 3 points against Man City = Rewarded with a new contract
I swear this club is deliberately tryna kill me https://t.co/FuZcV2mq4q

The @DavidLuiz_4 deal is still what I don’t understand….he’s cost us too many points this season for him to even get a 2 weeks extension
