1.Arsenal have discovered it in a rather bad way that Granit Xhaka is not a holding midfielder. Mohamed Elneny, the man who played as the holding midfielder this season is an average player.
2.Arsenal need to sign a new goalkeeper. Petr Cech is 36 now and has made a series of mistakes this season and the composure that he once displayed at Chelsea is now missing.
3.Mesut Ozil and Henrikh Mkhitaryan are quality options in the attack midfield positions. But the Gunners lack a speedy winger capable of changing the game. Someone like Anthony Martial would be an ideal option.
4.Laurent Koscielny will be out with a long-term injury. This leaves Callum Chambers, Shkodran Mustafi, and Rob Holding as the only options in the middle of the defense.
