Glovegun said:Will we sign another central striker, eg Gouffran or Anelka?
Wenger said we wont sign Anelka.
Glovegun said:Will we go for a winger? (Di Maria Id assume)
Arsenal Shorts made that one up.
Glovegun said:Is Eboue now seen as a right-winger?
Hasn't played there in preseason yet.
Glovegun said:Where does Wenger see Rosicky fitting in?
Almost certainly left midfield unless we switch to the 4-3-3 like you have above.
Glovegun said:Where will Eduardo play?
Out and out striker I think. Though I could be wrong.
Glovegun said:The future of Reyes?
Certainly not at Arsenal.
Glovegun said:A lot changeable factors in there, but a transition to 4-3-3 could be likely (or a 4-5-1 without the ball).
Definitely possible. When we signed Rosicky last year I remember Liam Brady saying it was to make up a midfield trio with Bert and Fab, add Denilson, Diaby and Flamini to that and it makes alot of sense. I believe the reason we didn't see that come about properly is because Reyes left and Wenger was left trying to figure out how best to shape his side after that.
Another problem was Henry as he didn't suit the role of playing in the centre of that shape attack. Now however we have Adebayor and Dudu who can both play that position well. van Persie is clearly ideal for that formation but on the right as opposed to the left with Walcott providing quality back up. The addition of Sagna could also indicate that there will be less cover for the full back position. However I see a couple of problems here. We really don't have anyone for the left wing forward position and Robin didn't do great when used there last season so the last thing we need now is to move our best forward again.
Lots of pros and cons for that system.
