Alright, let’s get down to business. The Premier League season starts next Saturday as Arsenal travels to west London to face Fulham at Craven Cottage. There might be some comings and/or going this week, so with that in mind, let’s take a shot at who Mikel Arteta will start on…
The Record in Portugal is reporting Arsenal has “frozen” their pursuit of Viktor Gyokeres due to Sporting’s asking price. The Gunners bid of $53-million (USD) plus add-ons was rejected by the Portuguese club. ESPN reports Arsenal will make another, larger offer in the coming days. Gyokeres has already rejected a move to Man United.
Benjamin Sesko, “Without an elite striker, Arsenal can not win the Premier League or the Champions League. Period.”
