I would welcome a new goalkeeper, but as you said we would need to get rid of one. It's not a priority, but we can improve the quality. We are fine at the back. I would like another central midfielder, now Diaby is gone, Arteta and Rosicky are getting on, and Flamini should not het near the starting line up, add to the fact we can't trust Wilshere to remain fit. I would also support signing a new striker but I doubt the manager will, he signed Welbeck last summer, has Walcott and Sanogo is out on loan. Giroud is still first choice. Podolski and Campbell will be sold, I think. However, can we improve the quality? I'm a big fan of Giroud, but yes.<br /><br />An interesting summer lies ahead...<br />cosmic__kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10462368321235667627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4699617282912594439.post-528048083483038472015-06-03T13:46:54.660+01:002015-06-03T13:46:54.660+01:00Am I the only one really struggling to figure what...Am I the only one really struggling to figure what Wenger is going to do in the market this summer? Do we need another GK? No, unless he gets rid of someone. Do we need another CB? No, unless he gets rid of someone. Do we need another DM? No, unless he gets rid of someone. Do we need another striker/winger? No, unless he gets rid of someone. Can improvements be made to any of these positions? Yes, of course they can, but right now the entire window seems to hinge on who goes more than who comes in. We can spout off all sorts of names based on recent media reports, but I can't think of a single player that seems a likely target while we still have no idea what Wenger wants to do with the current players. The likes of Szczesny, Mertesacker, Flamini and the several strikers we have out on loan are all taking up spots in the squad and there has been little to no indication that Wenger intends to ship out any of them. Cech, Schneiderlin and several strikers have been linked, but they would command sizeable wages and likely starting positions, which I don't think Wenger can offer them right now. I think it's far too early to make such bold claims of changes needed or expected here or there because, as he pointed out recently, the squad is very big and there isn't much room to facilitate these changes, based on squad size rules and wage budget restrictionsAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04216587478528658420noreply@blogger.com
