The 3 players Arsenal should target for January transfer
The summer transfer window was really very
thrilling, reason being Wenger acquired the best
no.10 in the world just by magic words (and of
course 42.4m pounds) on deadline day. And what a
debut he had for Arsenal. The question now arises –
are we strong and depth-wise fulfilled enough to
compete for title? If not, then Wenger can always go
back into the transfer market in January, so let’s
check out some potential big name transfers for
then.
Firstly the guy we missed in summer, Luis Suarez. He
is a very intelligent (apart from confusing his meal)
footballer and premier league proven quality. Now
this one really depends on Walcott. Against
Sunderland, Walcott missed two clear cut
opportunities not to mention a few other half decent
ones. Currently he is on a low, but let’s not put him
under pressure and give him some time. Let’s say till
January? Suarez would be an excellent addition given
he can collect and finish those Ozil key passes and
can give Giroud some rest.
Now we are well covered on the left flank with
Podolski, Ox and Cazorla. Even when Cazorla plays in
the middle when Ozil is rested we will have Ox and
Pod in the same position. But for me primarily
Suarez, if bought, will lead Arsenal’s right flank. And
when he plays upfront, Walcott gets his chance to
keep playing. But it will mean much less chances for
prince Podolski. Anyway it all depends on Walcott’s
form by the end of December. But just imagine this-
—————————————–Giroud———-
———————————–
Cazorla ——————————–Ozil
—————————————Suarez
——————————Ramsey —————–Arteta——–
———————
NOTE- this will be strongest lineup based on recent
form.
The second possible signing is also one we did bid for
in summer, Lars Bender. Another German, another
super talent. This one is a bit tricky. Most defensive
midfielders form a sturdy partnership with the
defense and attacking midfielders by the end of
December. Disrupting this partnership is not easy
and forming a new one when half of the season is
gone is even more difficult. So I think we should go
for Bender next summer. Then he will get more
comfortable at Arsenal and Arteta will teach him with
his experience so he can be the latter’s long time
replacement in his second season for Arsenal. We
should go all out for him in summer. I am really a big
fan of this guy.
The third one and my personal choice is Micah
Richards. Why do we need him? Because Sagna is
better in the central defense. And I think Vermaelen
should be given a CDM role while he makes his
comeback (like Luiz). So that becomes 3 CBs, 3 LBs
(including Verm) but only 2 regular RBs. Richards is
the answer. He is pacy, physical and an Arsenal fan
from boyhood. He is also proven quality. He is though
injury prone but then we will have Sagna and of
course Jenkinson to cover him. He can and will
succeed at Arsenal. He can also play as CB. Most
importantly he is yet to reach his prime. He isn’t
getting enough playing time at City so he will have
less difficulty getting into our system than any other
quality defender.
It’s always good to see new great players in your
squad given youngsters still get opportunities. The
past 2 weeks showed us that we can always trust in
Wenger. He makes the right choice. We have got a
really good manager; let’s back him up while he is
still here.
