The past few transfer windows have shown a change in Arsenal's approach when it comes to their direction in building a squad. The focus has shifted to younger players with potential as well as the right character and profile to fit the system Mikel Arteta is looking to play.
The results so far have been fantastic, seeing the side take an upward trajectory last season, improving on their consecutive eighth-placed finishes but narrowly missing out on a return to the Champions League. In this campaign they look to go one step further, with five additional signings and over £100million spent in the market so far.
With two wins from their first two games, it's an ideal start for the Gunners, who are starting to reap the rewards of their patience and strategy. That strategy has included being ruthless in the transfer market, whether that means avoiding players at certain price points, letting underperforming high-earners leave or simply not signing players if it doesn't suit them.
