It's no secrete we need a man with pace to play in between and run off the defenders making use of our world class A / M (ozil / Santi) if I look who us available in the striker position the one that stands out is lacazette, he has similar qualities to remy, but has a few more tricks..

In that time we've brought in Ozil (world class), Sanchez (world class), Debuchy (top quality defender), Chambers (going to be a top quality defender), Welbeck (quality and will hopefully further improve) and Ospina (who knows but looked pretty good at the wc).

Muhammad, who is the No. 5 TE in the 2018 class and has a 100 % Michigan Crystal Ball, hurdled a defender in the video below:

@josh... And before you troll my comment... By saying we need a versatile defender, I mean one who could play L.B as gibbs n monreal can't go a season without an injury... Mert is aging, wenger haven't played chambers at C.B for a very lon time even when he's slow and sometimes woeful at R.B, Kos is Top class but he needs proper handling, debuchy have been getting frequently injured lately, Bellerin can't do it all alone, that leaves us with gabriel who's only just arrived and is getting used to the league....

If we manage to replace those who leave, as well as bringing in two top top world class striker + defensive midfielder / central defender, I'd say the squad is about good enough to take a dig at PL trophy and CL semi's.

This is an incredibly difficult question to answer for a variety of reasons, most importantly because over the years our once vaunted «beautiful» style of play has become a shadow of it's former self, only to be replaced by a less than stellar «plug and play» mentality where players play out of position and adjustments / substitutions are rarely forthcoming before the 75th minute... if you look at our current players, very few would make sense in the traditional Wengerian system... at present, we don't have the personnel to move the ball quickly from deep - lying position, efficient one touch midfielders that can make the necessary through balls or the disciplined and pacey forwards to stretch defences into wide positions, without the aid of the backs coming up into the final 3rd, so that we can attack the defensive lanes in the same clinical fashion we did years ago... on this current squad, we have only 1 central defender on staf, Mustafi, who seems to have any prowess in the offensive zone or who can even pass two zones through so that we can advance play quickly out of our own end (I have seen some inklings that suggest Holding might have some offensive qualities but too early to tell)... unfortunately Mustafi has a tendency to get himself in trouble when he gets overly aggressive on the ball... from our backs out wide, we've seen pace from the likes of Bellerin and Gibbs and the spirited albeit offensively stunted play of Monreal, but none of these players possess the skill - set required in the offensive zone for the new Wenger scheme which requires deft touches, timely runs to the baseline and consistent crossing, especially when Giroud was playing and his ratio of scored goals per clear chances was relatively low (better last year though)... obviously I like Bellerin's future prospects, as you can't teach pace, but I do worry that he regressed last season, which was obvious to Wenger because there was no way he would have used Ox as the right side wing - back so often knowing that Barcelona could come calling in the off - season, if he thought otherwise... as for our midfielders, not a single one, minus the more confident Xhaka I watched played for the Swiss national team a couple years ago, who truly makes sense under the traditional Wenger model... Ramsey holds onto the ball too long, gives the ball away cheaply far too often and abandons his defensive responsibilities on a regular basis (doesn't score enough recently to justify): that being said, I've always thought he does possess a little something special, unfortunately he thinks so too... Xhaka is a little too slow to ever boss the midfield and he tends to telegraph his one true strength, his long ball play: although I must admit he did get a bit better during some points in the latter part of last season... it always made me wonder why whenever he played with Coq Wenger always seemed to play Francis in a more advanced role on the pitch... as for Coq, he is way too reckless at the wrong times and has exhibited little offensive prowess yet finds himself in and around the box far too often... let's face it Wenger was ready to throw him in the trash heap when injuries forced him to use Francis and then he had the nerve to act like this was all part of a bigger Wenger constructed plan... he like Ramsey, Xhaka and Elneny don't offer the skills necessary to satisfy the quick transitory nature of our old offensive scheme or the stout defensive mindset needed to protect the defensive zone so that our offensive players can remain aggressive in the final third... on the front end, we have Ozil, a player of immense skill but stunted by his physical demeanor that tends to offend, the fact that he's been played out of position far too many times since arriving and that the players in front of him, minus Sanchez, make little to no sense considering what he has to offer (especially Giroud); just think about the quick counter-attack offence in Real or the space and protection he receives in the German National team's midfield, where teams couldn't afford to focus too heavily on one individual... this player was a passing «specialist» long before he arrived in North London, so only an arrogant or ignorant individual would try to reinvent the wheel and / or not surround such a talent with the necessary components... in regards to Ox, Walcott and Welbeck, although they all possess serious talents I see them in large part as headless chickens who are on the injury table too much, lack the necessary first - touch and / or lack the finishing flair to warrant their inclusion in a regular starting eleven; I would say that, of the 3, Ox showed the most upside once we went to a back 3, but even he became a bit too consumed by his pending contract talks before the season ended and that concerned me a bit... if I had to choose one of those 3 players to stay on it would be Ox due to his potential as a plausible alternative to Bellerin in that wing - back position should we continue to use that formation... in Sanchez, we get one of the most committed skill players we've seen on this squad for some years but that could all change soon, if it hasn't already of course... strangely enough, even he doesn't make sense given the constructs of the original Wenger offensive model because he holds onto the ball too long and he will give the ball up a little too often in the offensive zone... a fact that is largely forgotten due to his infectious energy and the fact that the numbers he has achieved seem to justify the means... finally, and in many ways most crucially, Giroud, there is nothing about this team or the offensive system that Wenger has traditionally employed that would even suggest such a player would make sense as a starter... too slow, too inefficient and way too easily dispossessed... once again, I think he has some special skills and, at times, has showed some world - class qualities but he's lack of mobility is an albatross around the necks of our offence... so when you ask who would be our best starting 11, I don't have a clue because of the 5 or 6 players that truly deserve a place in this side, 1 just arrived, 3 aren't under contract beyond 2018 and the other was just sold to Juve... man, this is theraputic because following this team is like an addiction to heroin without the benefits

If ManU who has an unlimited budget and fails to bring in a world class defender than how should we with a limited budget?

Weird, because there was a world class central defender that completed a transfer for # 30m this summer who's come out and said he'd have been open to joining Arsenal if we'd bothered to approach him.

ridiculous... whatever he is in midfield he was a complete waste of a player on the wing... lacked pace and touch and did nt go past players... if wenger does nt invest in another world class attacker this summer we will always be nearly theres... giroud has improved undoubtedly but against top class defenders he is just another journeyman from ligue un... bellerin certainly our top choice fullback now hazard did nt get a look in... coquelin carzola ozil sanchez working together... so if we invest properly in summer we can overhaul this lot who are no great team for sure..

A 4 -3-3 system is favoured by Barca, Real Madrid and Man City and Bayern, the top four teams in Europe.It suits the attacking philosophy of Arsene Wenger which is to his credit.Unfortunately we do not have the top quality defenders these teams have nor a dominant DM.Nevertheless it is the best system for our current team which is top heavy in attacking midfielders hence the need to play Ozil and Mik in wide positions.In my opinion the most balanced central midfield would consist of Elneny, Ramsay and Wilshere.Elneny was first class against Watford yet was left out against an average Milan side to accommodate the ever present Xhaka who will no doubt feature against CSK.

Falcao, when they have RVP and rooney already, Di Maria, who is top class, but their defenders are still trash, they're an unbalanced side.

i disagree with you, i personally don't appreciate silly sycophantic articles like this, we all know Per is not world class, we all know the only defender we have who is close to WC is Kos.And how the author can be so critical of Gabriel when hes played a handful of games is beyond me.We don't need stupid articles like this, we need real articles which provide proper analysis.

The point — We have then good players who we can make world - class, we have made some too and Debuchy is now the best defender in Europe... he just left us, and look what he can do, then we got Oxdale Chamberlain and he too seems to be on the rise, Giroud just did a match - winning brace.

You do not need to be a rocket scientist to know that Arsenal need a world class strike who can put fear in the heart of opposition defenders, which would enable the other guys with skill from midfield to break through at will.

Then buy world class Reus, strong DM khedira / Schneiderlin, top class defender hummels and sign young versatile defender some one like fabian schar who can play at all defensive positions because injuries can hurt us at any time and sell arteta, podolski (wants to leave) etc and other liablity players..

What I do know is that this is the best Arsenal have looked in years — we have options on the bench, we have great players who are still young enough to become world - class players, we have money to spend in the summer, we have an outstanding set of defenders, and we still have Arsene Wenger.

At 6» 1 ″, Rodriguez has the physical presence to stand up to the challenges presented by some of the Championship's more robust defenders, while his pace, movement and link - up play mark him out as a class act and one who looks capable of playing at a higher level sooner rather than later.

With Phil Jones» recent injury and an unconvincing back line, it would be wise to bring in a world - class defender in Otamendi, whilst Pedro would give United an attacking spark and flair, which could make the front line more prolific and could take some of the responsibilities off Memphis Depay, who has not yet hit his stride at Manchester United.
