Emmanuel Petit urges Arsenal to hijack deal for one Chelsea transfer target before deadline day - as the ex-Gunners star insists Mikel Arteta's side can win the Premier League with one new addition

Former Arsenal midfielder Emmanuel Petit has urged Mikel Arteta and sporting director Deco to swoop in and sign one of Chelsea's main transfer targets, insisting the player can take the Gunners to the next level.

After missing out on winning the Premier League title last season to Manchester City, questions have been asked over what Arsenal must do this season to outdo Pep Guardiola's trophy winning machine.

So far things have been looking good for the Gunners, with Arsenal putting up two dominant performances to beat both of Wolves and Aston Villa in their opening games of the new league season.
