After losing Alexis Sanchez, Arsenal fans would have been forgiven for cause for concern.

However, Gooners have already welcomed Henrik Mkhitrayan and are now preparing for the arrival of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

No deal is currently in place to sign the Borussia Dortmund striker, but Arsene Wenger’s side are working with the Bundesliga outfit to ensure the transfer happens before Wednesday’s deadline.

It all means Arsenal fans are likely to see a new look frontline in the coming weeks.

It will prove difficult to incorporate Mesut Ozil, Alexandre Lacazette, Aubameyang and Mkhitaryan in the same side. Meanwhile Alex Iwobi who has improved in recent outings will still fancy his chances of getting.

Wenger also has a tough decision to make when it comes to picking formation. Arsenal have leaked goals this season as a back three and a back four, but to have the best chance of winning many will feel the boss must play both Lacazette and Aubameyang.

Does that mean fielding both as strikers? Or to push one out to the wing?

Gooners, what formation and what line up would you deploy? Let us know in the comments…
