You get the impression that the summer transfer window will now get into full swing for Arsenal with no international fixtures providing a distraction.
Officially, the window has been open for a week now but the Gunners' confirmed business thus far has centered around outgoings rather than incomings with Ainsley Maitland-Niles among several players leaving when their contracts expire at the end of the month in addition to youngster Nikolaj Moller joining St Gallen permanently.
That's not to say manager Mikel Arteta and sporting director Edu Gaspar aren't working on deals to ensure the Arsenal squad is strong enough to compete for the Premier League title next season as well as going far in both domestic cup competitions and the Champions League.
