Caicedo signs, Vieira decision - Mikel Arteta's Arsenal midfield dilemma after £136m spend

How will Arsenal's midfield look for their trip to take on Manchester United at Old Trafford on September 4?

That clash of two English heavyweights will be significant as it is the first game after the transfer window closes on September 1. The Gunners have made some smart signings for the present and the future. Gabriel Jesus has been the pick of the bunch so far as his electric pre-season form has now carried into the 2022/23 Premier League campaign. The Brazilian, who put in a solid outing at Selhurst Park on opening night, followed that up with two goals against Leicester City in the 4-2 home win.

Oleksandr Zinchenko looks to be settling in well too as demonstrated by his decent performance in that Foxes win. The verdict is still out there on Matt Turner and Marquinhos with both yet to rack up any Premier League minutes for the first-team, while Fabio Vieira's £31.5million move from Porto has so far been disrupted by injury.
