Even Wenger doesn’t know his best Arsenal midfield

Before transfer deadline day, all Arsenal fans alike recognised that our squad was desperately thin both in terms of quality as well as numbers. After transfer deadline day, Arsenal fans were left a lot happier with the news we had signed Mesut Ozil, however two additions still hasn’t really added lots to our squad depth as a whole. What it has done however is that we now find ourselves deployed with too many players for one or two positions and then literally no players for others. An example of this is the fact that by signing Mesut Ozil, Arsene Wenger now has a real headache in midfield. Arsenal’s best area on the pitch before Ozil’s signature was easily the midfield and now that the 24 year old German international has linked up with the Gunners it’s added more quality to the team. As stupid as this question may seem, do Arsenal now have a problem of having too much talent in midfield? In terms of a squad then I’d say no because we only have a few real talented players in midfield however in terms of what three to select in our midfield trio, suddenly things become a little more complicated. Assuming Ozil will always get into the team when available, he will be deployed as a centre attacking mid and with Cazorla out wide, this leaves us with Ramsey, Wilshere, Rosicky and Arteta as the main midfielders (because Diaby and Frimpong are extremely unlikely to play for the club for different respective reasons.) So with The players mentioned, that’s four very good players all who deserve a place in the Arsenal team. Rosicky is predominantly very attacking, so I can only assume that he will be used as back up to Ozil and so I think he’s more likely than not to feature on the bench. Wilshere seems to be almost guaranteed a starting spot, although I think he will have to battle it out with Ramsey and Arteta, one of which will of course be on the bench. In terms of current standards, I would definitely select Ramsey and Wilshere however it seems difficult not to select Arteta, because he is such an important player to our game and his highly valued contribution often goes unnoticed. I guess it’s just a matter of time until Wenger is forced into this decision and when it comes along I can assure you that it won’t be easy for Le Professor! It may take some experimenting before the boss really knows his best system, and that may depend on who and where Arsenal are playing. What do you think Gooners?
