Arsenal next season?

Fri Jul 11, 2014 12:32 pm

How does everyone think Arsenal will do this year? Now they've signed Sanchez and it's looking likely they'll sign Debuchy I can see them winning the title. They're still in for Remy as well which is what they missed out on last year, only having Giroud as a decent striker.
Their potential side could be:
.....................Szczesny
Debuchy Mertesacker Koscielny Gibbs
............Ramsey.....Wilshire
Sanchez..........Ozil............Cazorla/Walcott
................Remy/Giroud

That's not including players like Flamini, Rosicki and Oxlade-Chamberlain. What they lacked last year was depth, which didn't help with their injury problems. Now they'll have that bit of depth I can see them going all the way

Yeah there midfield in particular is huge! Diaby, Arteta as well as Flamini, Ox, Rosicky you mentioned. Apparently they are looking at Khedira or Bender as well for centre mid (guess to play along side Rambo). Also got the Costa Rica lad coming back, Joel Campbell

They gotta be right up there for the title next year now.

They have added well. They were looking like title contenders mid way through last season, they had rotten luck with injuries though and it cost them in the end.

They will be challenging this season i think.

Sanchez looked class in the world cup and is definitely different to giroud hes going to be a great addition for them. Never had any time for arsenal but has I've got older you can't help but admire the way they play the game.

Swap Wilshere for the imminent Sami Khadeira! What a team they'll have!

A better left-back may be needed but, that aside, they're bloody strong. I just want to see Diaby back playing regularly.

I'm not buying into the hype, personally. They always fall short against the big boys, and there's no way in hell Man City will cock up against the weaker teams like they did at the start of last season. Arsenal won't win the title.

Apart from debuchy its the same back four that conceded heavily against the big teams last season,and debuchy is seen as an attacking full back.

I'm putting Arsenal Cardiff double on. Linked with some very good players.

Kheidra would be perfect, defiantly the player they need for the big teams in away games.

They missed a trick this season, they should have bought bigger.

Sanchez is very arsenal and need a few more. Chelsea will do well and manu will be back. I fancy man city to fall back

They will be back for sure, they got a manager now.
Moyes was never the man.

I can't see Man Utd back challenging for the title for a couple of seasons. They were well off the pace last year and whilst they will strengthen so will everybody else. Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea all look to have strengthened well already and no doubt Liverpool will spend again now Suarez has gone.

Liverpool only did well because they had no champions league this year they will be lucky to be sixth, and they haven't got suarez anymore. Man united got a quality squad already and if they add to it they will be title challengers.
