When most people talk about Premier League sides’ chances of lifting the title each season, you often hear about the theme of squad depth.
Something which Arsenal haven’t had enough of in recent years, things appear to be different this time around.
Arsene Wenger’s Gunners are usually blighted with mass injury crises that time and again knock their chances of realistically competing.
However, there haven’t been too many injuries so far this campaign and with a range of riches to choose from now in both defence as well as attack, Arsenal supporters are happy with the make up of their squad.

Talking of Arsenal’s squad at large, This Is Futbol have today devised a list of FIVE Gunners stars who must desperately seek a loan switch in January to boost their playing time however.
