The arrival of Virgil van Dijk in early January from Southampton in a world - record # 75 million
deal for a defender also brought new blood to the center back positions.
Not exact matches
I'll go a step further if Van Djik hasn't signed
for Liverpool I would try to make a move and here is why: 1) Prem experience 2) Southampton plays a similar style of football than Arsenal 3) He can play in both a 3 and 4 man defense with his ability on the ball 4) Mustafi has been up and down and I don't know which one we're getting ahead of next season and will it be
for 38 weeks 5) Mertesacker will go into a non playing role 6) Chambers has played well at Boro but well enough to play a big role into this team... not really and could be used in any
deal for Van Djik 7) Koscielny is our best
defenders but is
dealing with a chronic injury not only that he hasn't made the best decisions at times Everything mentioned above will free wages but
also increase Wenger money to spend!
