Although the squad is bigger, regular injuries to some of the usual suspects - namely Thomas Partey and Takehiro Tomiyasu - along with some rotten luck regarding Jurrien Timber, make it feel like Arsenal are one or two injuries away from a major problem again.
It's clear Arsenal require another competent deep-lying midfield option and another defender whose profile would depend on when Timber is expected to return. A striker can wait until the summer.
