Schneiderlin Is A Good Option For Arsenal - Why The Gunners Should Go For Saints Star Over Real Madrid Man

It is well documented that Arsenal are chasing a new defensive midfielder to give the Gunners an alternative to Mikel Arteta and Mathieu Flamini. Arsene Wenger is certainly eying a much younger, fitter and overall better midfielder to ensure that his defence get the best cover he can afford. With increased cover for his defenders, it could help them in the games that they tend to struggle in and prevent any chance of complete and utter capitulation.

Passionate And Energetic: Arsenal Need Ramsey Back In The Fold

The excitement and anticipation one receives when a top quality player is expected to return from injury is something which is very hard to describe. Those feelings are currently being injected into Arsenal's Aaron Ramsey as his return moves ever closer.

Ozil Must Not Start Against Stoke - Here's Why

Mesut Ozil was completely left out of the Arsenal squad when the Gunners hosted Sunderland last weekend. There was conflicting reports surrounding the reason as to why Ozil was left out of the squad with some suggesting that he picked up an injury while others were saying he was being rested. Whatever the reason, he was left out of the squad and the team, as a whole, played better and won 4-1. I'm not for one minute suggesting that Arsenal are stronger without Ozil, but Arsenal did play with more energy and were more productive in attack.

Why This Arsenal Loanee Could Be Key For Wenger Next Season

Gnabry vs Swansea (video)

My final piece and final match compilation is of someone different to Mesut Ozil. Gnabry is young, very young in fact, and to be thrown into the deep end at such a young age will be very daunting for the player. That is the reason why a few of his performances have been somewhat lacking in composure.

5 players that can inspire Arsenal to glory this season

Arsenal and winning trophies has been a love story put on hold for too long. They've gone from having the confidence and the mindset to win any trophy they can compete in to blind optimism in recent years. They've come close on a couple of occasions though. Champions League final in 2006 and that League Cup final spring to mind but they haven't quite been able to get past the finishing line. Mesut Ozil's arrival has renewed faith in the fans that they can actually win something this season. Which is why the first player on my list is, without a doubt, Mesut Ozil.

5 Arsenal youth players that could make the step up

Arsene Wenger has often been accused of breathing new life into the team too often and that he buys too many young players when what Arsenal really need is a good experienced player. This season, however, is different.

The Importance Of Mesut Ozil For Arsenal

This is a follow on from my Tomas Rosicky post about the importance of some players in a team. With the arrival of Mesut Ozil I feel that his importance off the pitch could be just as important as on it. When you pay over £40 million for a player you expect to get your money's worth, and with Ozil you definitely get your money's worth.

A Look At Serge Gnabry - Arsenal's German powerhouse

Last on my list of Arsenal youngsters is a certain Serge Gnabry, who, unlike the other two, has experienced competitive football in the Gunners' first team already. He has featured in a couple of Premier League games last season and a Champions League game also. The German is a mere 18 years of age but is more likely to make an appearance at some point this season, more than the aforementioned Akpom and Zelalem. Serge has drawn comparisons to Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain due to being skilful, fast and very capable physically. Both are considered to be powerful wingers.

Arsenal Youngsters Who Could Make The Step Up This Season

As we all know, Arsene Wenger loves to unearth gems from around the world and they are usually young. His extensive scouting network has allowed him to bring in talent from South America, North America, Asia, Africa and of course Europe. Perhaps the more favourable destination for his scouts is sunny Spain - in a certain Catalonia area where a certain Spanish team play their football, to be more precise. Anyway, Wenger is very good at buying young talent and selling them for large fees in the future. Henry, Fabregas, Adebayor, Nasri etc... You get the picture. In this piece I will evaluate who in the Arsenal youth set up will possibly make the step up this season.
