Emery really needs to sort that CM and defence out! Xhaka and Elneny. Oh dear!

Yep given un upgraded contract to the likes of Xhaka who will go down as Wengers worst signing given the price paid is baffling. Apart from Torriera not really been impressed with Arsenal signings so far. Although they have picked up Leno for a decent price but Ive been hearing he is the German version of Karius which says alot really.

Karius the German? so hes......Double German! Oh no.
 
Calum Chambers will today sign a new 4yr contract with Arsenal to keep him there until 2022. Only signed 2yr extension in Oct 2017 that tied him down until 2021 but new head coach Unai Emery sees huge potential in 23yo + wants him to compete for starting berth at centre-back #AFC [Ornstien]
 
Despite some of the oldies they have been signing, I actually think their business has been good, especially when you compare it to the summers under Wenger.

They've lacked a spine for years and appear to be addressing that. Probably want proven winners as well with experience to get the mentality in the squad back, hence signing of Lichsteiner.

They will have experience again but no quality incomings so far. Toirrera will be class if they get it over the line. Soktatis and Licht were absolutely woeful last season. They don’t have much choice there in no position to be overly fussy with there targets atm.

They have lacked a player like Torreira for a VERY long time. They don't really need quality, they have a lot of good players already they just need a manager with new ideas and a spine to be built.

From Ornstien

Two medicals taking place at Arsenal today - 22-year-old Uruguay midfielder Lucas Torreira from Sampdoria and 19-year-old France Under-20 midfielder Matteo Guendouzi from Lorient. Torreira key signing for immediate term, Guendouzi high-potential prospect for future #AFC #URU #FRA
 
Guendouzi PPMs:
Switches ball to opposite flank
Tries Long range passes
Tries to play way out of trouble
 
Really fancying Arsenal to return to the top 4 considering not only the bounce of a new manager and fanbase that has no option but to be bouncing and supportive after finally getting what they wanted. But you’re the only club, along with ourselves, who’s got your business done early with the window shut in less than three weeks.

’Spurs are in a wholly mess with most all their top XI in question the start the season after all going so deep the WC. Not to mention not a single move the market. Chelsea are just weird. **** knows what’s going on there. And Utd, as yet, have done nottin’ to inspire anyone with time running out.

With most everyone there all pre-season having that major jump on rivals for a chance at a quick, solid start, I’m liking Arsenal’s chances of being one of the four again this term.
 
I was hearing rumors of that at start of world cup. Very clique oriented team they had who were not friendly to turkish teammates.
 
Sign a keeper for £30mill give or take... leave him on bench and make Cech captain????? Bit strange.

Despite all the optimism, it's really hard to see Emery playing a high line when he has players like Sokratis in his defence. Also interesting how he has gone with Guendouzi in midfield, the kid was playing French Ligue 2 football last season.
