The Type of Player That We Need.

I agree we certainly need a goal scoring midfielder, we have lost Cesc, Nasri and Arshavin all in the space of a few months and it has shown terribly. I have in the past suggested names like Sessegnon, Dempsey or Sigurdson, they all know where the goal, they are all versatile, have premiership experience and I think they would love the chance to play for us even if they were just squad players.

We also miss creativity from the middle so it would be ideal if we could get a player in the Cesc mould.

Batmanu- Sessegnon's a good player but his finishing is far too erratic, if we're looking for the cheap option then Sigurdsson or Dempsey are good choices. Although ideally we should be going for Kagawa or Eriksen.

Is that your christmas wishing list? don't you think it ias far too early?
Joke aside, I wish we could have one of them

I would love if we got Eriksen. Kagawa looks destined to be a Manc sadly.

Kagawa, eriken are never happening. Dempsey and sigurdsson even seem unrealistic. In my opinion we are going to stick with similar midfield but add 1 defensive midfielder. I am confident that podolski can bag close to 20 goals.

This is where not getting Mata has cost us. Can you imagine how good our midfield would be the deal hadn't fallen through? Such a ridiculous decision not to pay a little extra to get him.

HMNIV- We are definitely getting one attacking midfielder, please bookmark this!

It's hard to find players like Mata which makes it even more ridiculous.

Agreed but I seriously doubt that RVP (even if he stays) will have a similar season! Next season, in the best case I could see him score close to 20 "only".

Agree 100%

We also need to see more goals from those we already have in the squad. I expect to see Chamberlain, Arteta and Wilshere to contribute more goal wise next season, especially if we see a real defensive midfielder join the squad.

Ramsey just needs to get some semblance of form back, before his leg break he liked an accurate shot on goal.

More importantly we need our attackers to score more, Gervinho, Rosicky and to a lesser extent Walcott need more goals.

On a positive note, we now have Podolski

It is hard to see knowing wenger loves ramsey, maybe if we can sort out a loan deal for him then there is a possibility of adding another midfielder.

If RVP stays I think he can build on this season, remember it's his first full season playing week in week out.

A loan deal would be perfect for Ramsey. Some shooting practise wouldn't go amiss either. I reckon that a midfield of Wilshere-Fabregas-Arteta woild have been great.

posted on 9/5/12

Defensive Midfielders: M'Vila, Song and Coq

Central Midfielders: Arteta and Wilshere

Attacking Midfielders: Rosicky and Ramsey

I highly doubt that Rosicky can last a whole season and we have all seen that Ramsey is nowhere near Arsenal quality atm and will most likely go out on loan next season.

We should of sorted this out last year when we were reportedly on the brink of signing Mata. This time around I would really like it if we got either Clinton Dempsey or Hernanes. Both are very good techinical players with a great eye for a pass,and both are good goalsscorers from Midfield.

We need someone for Ramsey!
Please Wenger, please

I would to see Ramsey given a clean slate pre-season and hopefully he can prove he is the player we all though he would be when he signed.

I would like to see a tricky, dare I say Nasri esque type just to offer something a little different than we have at the minute.

I am happy to see Wenger bring in more direct players like Chamberlain and Ryo but it would be nice to have a the option of something a little different in a Nasri/Hleb type when we need something else to unlock a defense.

'I would like to see a tricky, dare I say Nasri esque type just to offer something a little different than we have at the minute.'

We definitely need that type of player especially now that Benayoun's leaving, Wenger prefers to play a midfielder on the left wing when we're up against the big teams.
