3 players Arsenal should target this winter
When it comes to making big money moves, the Gunners are never shy of breaking transfer records, and we have seen that in the kind of players they have managed to bring on board in the past. However, we have seen a mixture of results for Emery’s men in recent times.
Arsenal has been blowing hot and cold in the league this season. The level of inconsistency and injuries has left the team out of options. They have particularly suffered due to lacking a strong bench, and the board needs to address this quickly.
Arsenal is suffering due to a lack of quality players at the back, but Emery remains defiant that his team will be able to cope with a leaky defense. That is impossible, considering the number of games still left to play. The writing is on the wall - Arsenal need to sign more players.
The competition for a top-four finish is slowly heating up, with the likes of Chelsea and Manchester united upping their games. The Premier League is truely a tough place to be complacent. Therefore, doing business early before the transfer window shuts would be a smart move by Arsenal.
Actually, making these signings early enough will not only solve the crisis at the Emirates, but could also make the Gunners future title contenders.
It is not a matter of ‘when’ or ‘why’, as bringing in new players to prevent the team from leaking in more goals is not in any way debatable.
Arsenal need to sign at least three players in this window. Lets take a look at some players the Gunners should target.
#1 Gary Cahill
Maurizio Sarri has hardly given Gary Cahill playing time this season, raising doubts over his future. Nonetheless, the England international has played in the Premier League for years, therefore his experience should benefit the Gunners.
Also, Cahill has vast experience in playing top-flight football at Chelsea, especially in the Champions League, that would indeed benefit Arsenal. His leadership skills as Chelsea captain would as well be important in the dressing room at Arsenal.
The Emirates Stadium has been touted as a potential destination for Gary Cahill. This seems to be the perfect opportunity for the Gunners to sign him, solving their defensive crisis.
