Worryingly for us, Arsenal are strengthening well.
Given their meagre transfer budget, they've recruited well - they've signed a lot of good young players (Torreira and Guendouzi have settled well already from last summer, and they have Saliba and Martinelli this summer) under Emery, with deadwood like Perez and Welbeck shipped off/let go (compare that to Rojo, Darmian, Jones, Young, Sanchez, Matic with us - though they're still struggling with Miki and Ozil's wages tbf).
Pepe is massive for them. Sure, Laca and Auba were already a great strike force, but Iwobi and Miki on the wings were very poor - Pepe seriously bolsters a position they did need reinforcements in. Very top heavy for sure, but what a great top it is.
Tierney looks to be going to them too - many here rate him as better than Shaw, and he's another that's a big upgrade on the stop gaps they've been using at LB. Holding out and haggling (as we did with AWB and attempted with Maguire) is very annoying for fans, but does have its advantages - Tierney for about £25m would be a great deal. Selling a 21 year old who was playing in League 1 last season for almost £10m is fantastic business, too.
The elephant in the room is obviously CB - Emery is hilariously trying to convince Koscielny to stay - but other than that, Emery's doing very well with the funds he's been given.
We've done great business this summer for sure, addressing key areas that desperately needed improving, but so have Arsenal. I wouldn't be surprised to see them pushing all the way for top 4 - possibly even third, depending on how injuries hit Spurs this season.
