Arsenal haven’t been active so far since the start of the transfer market and I’m sure it must have raised some eyebrows. I think I’ve seen this pattern over the years. I’m more calm than anything else regarding Arsenal’s transfers tbh. With the way they competed in the 2nd half of last season, the reintegration of Gabriel Jesus and Timber is cause for hope. Even two signings of the right quality in the right positions will take them to the next level. They’ll be good. They just need one or two uplifting signings. Hopefully, they'll be the right ones.
I’m sure that a lot of activities will take place in the latter part of the window, it's who blinks first for now.
With conditions where they have always been loyal in shopping for players in the previous season, Arsenal for this season still look quite passive. It's just that I don't think it will last long because however there are still several players rumored with Arsenal and one of them could still be a reality for them to bring in this season.
But if they try to be passive it looks like Arteta is still quite satisfied with the performance of his foster children, which in these 2 seasons is still very good at making contributions.
But indeed for now Arsenal's problem still seems to lie in the finisher. They are still very good in the quality of the attacks but their finishing is still poor because some of their strikers sometimes have trouble scoring goals. There are a lot of strikers owned by Arsenal such as Kai or Jesus but it still seems to be lacking.
