And are we really in for him?. Because to me it seems like this rumour is just random. Don’t make sense. We have Auba, Laca and Balogun.

Anyways, I hope it is just a rumour as it. The Ben white for £50 million is also getting me nervous.

Welbeck without the personality

Mikel Arteta is expecting "some new faces" to join Arsenal when they take part in the Florida Cup, with the Gunners closing in on top transfer targets such as Brighton defender Ben White.

Goal has been able to confirm that a £50 million ($69m) fee has been agreed with the Seagulls for an England international.

Other recruits are also being chased down, with Nuno Tavares already on board, and the expectation is that deals will be done while the Premier League heavyweights are in America.

I liken that to what you are saying Jay, how are you gonna rebuild a team with bare youngsters, where are the experienced heads ? Where are the leaders ? To me this rebuild is gonna collapse without some players the youngsters can look up to and be led by. The rebuild should be established respected senior players augmented with young players.

There is real change in the air...and long overdue.
Arteta is building a young team that we should be getting behind.

Gabriel 23
Tierney 24
ESR 20
Saka 19
Sambi 21
Tavares 21
Martinelli 20

We'll see about Balogun also - whether he can step up.
If Ben White joins? he's 23

I find this to be exactly what was required.
I see a proper rebuild.
Now, of course, Arteta has to give all these guys a decent chance and in some cases build around them , like Gabriel, ESR, Saka and Martinelli.

Don't talk to me about big names either. Players like Mahrez and Kante were not big names when Leicester spotted them and brought them in.
Our fans need to get over their longing for so called ready made 'stars'

Nothing can beat summer 2015.

1 transfer, Petr Cech. We finish 2nd because Giroud fired blanks for 15 games running.

Leicester’s scouring system is top notch, ours isn’t.
