In the past season, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has started to see a squad shaped in his image come to the fore, with the Gunners challenging fiercely for a top four finish. The Spaniard saw his side fall short of European football last campaign, but this year, his side hold all the cards to return to the Champions League.
His men currently sit fourth in the Premier League, three points clear of north London rivals Tottenham in fifth with a game in hand over the Lilywhites. Not only have the results been impressive, but the performances and individuals have matched it too.
A summer exodus saw a number of players leave, while a fresh influx of new talent came through the doors at the Emirates Stadium. The likes of Ben White, Aaron Ramsdale, Martin Odegaard and Takehiro Tomiyasu all joined and have made impressions with their performances.
