Arsenal had one of the deepest squads last season, which carried them to the Premier League title and Champions League final. It looks like that summer transfer window didn’t change that, until the same names began to appear twice. Eberechi Eze covers the left wing and Martin Ødegaard. Noni Madueke covers Bukayo Saka and Christos […] The post Arsenal’s transfer window has left question marks for the fans appeared first on SoccerNews.
Al-Hilal signed Gabriel Martinelli from Arsenal earlier this week (Photo: Al-Hilal/Twitter) Arsenal have been told they should have beaten Manchester City to the signing of a £65million on deadline day, who would have ‘hit the ground running’ at the Emirates. It was known from the start of the summer that Mikel Arteta was looking to improve his options on the left-flank but his side are now arguably even weaker in that position. Christos Tzolis was signed to replace Leandro Trossard but the Gunners failed to bring in another forward before deadline day and have since allowed Gabriel Martinelli to join Al-Hilal for £60million. That’s despite the Premier League champions pursuing deals for several huge stars over the summer, namely Morgan Rogers, Vinicius Junior and Julian Alvarez.

All three would have set Arsenal back nine-figures, with Rogers joining rivals Chelsea for £117m. But former Arsenal academy star and England international Jay Bothroyd believes a relatively cheaper option would have been the perfect signing – but the player has now joined the Citizens. Arsenal should have gone for [Iliman] Ndiaye early doors,’ the former Premier League striker said on Sky Sports News. Arsenal were linked with Iliman Ndiaye but the Everton star joined Man City on deadline day (Photo: Getty) ‘Yes, we went for Vinicius Junior who’s arguably the best left-winger in the world, but when you look at the value for money for Ndiaye, I feel like £65million is an absolute steal. ‘Man City, for me, had the best window. They got in top, top players straight away that can come in, hit the ground running. And they’ve got depth now. ‘You got [Jeremy] Doku and Ndiaye on that left-hand side. You got Phil Foden and Antoine Semenyo on the right. You got Rayan Cherki [in attacking midfield], Foden can play in that role as well. Christos Tzolis is now the only natural left-winger at Arsenal (Photo: Getty) ‘They’ve got so much depth going forward now. It was a great signing.’ Ndiaye had been tenuously linked with Arsenal over the summer following two strong seasons at Everton, but in the final week of the transfer window, it seemed Tottenham had won the race for his signature. That moved collapsed however and Enzo Maresca quickly swooped in to lure the Senegal international to the Etihad, with Jack Grealish moving in the opposite direction. Eberechi Eze is expected to feature more on the left this season (Photo: Getty) ‘As an Arsenal fan, we didn’t improve that left-hand side and I feel like that’s one place we definitely needed to,’ Bothroyd added. ‘We got Tzolis there. Yes, he’s started well, but he’s a young, inexperienced player that doesn’t know the Premier League. ‘Having Ndiaye… He would be first choice. He would hit the ground running and it would bring real balance to that Arsenal side.’ Tzolis, a £34m arrival from Club Brugge, recorded three assists in his first two Arsenal games but was hooked at half-time against Aston Villa last Monday following a very poor performance. While not their preferred position, Eberechi Eze and Noni Madueke can operate on the left-wing and it will be interesting to see who Arteta picks on Sunday when they face Chelsea at the Emirates.

Could the vain pursuit of ‘dream’ signings such as Vinícius Júnior at the expense of all-round strengthening come to haunt the champions?When Mikel Arteta revealed before Arsenal’s win at Aston Villa that he had pleaded with the Premier League to introduce bigger matchday squads, the final 24 hours of the transfer window was not quite what he would have had in mind. A deadline day on which Manchester City matched the British record to sign Enzo Fernández from Chelsea for £125m came and went as Arsenal allowed Gabriel Jesus and Ethan Nwaneri to leave without bringing in replacements.With Gabriel Martinelli expected to join Al-Hilal before Sunday’s deadline in Saudi Arabia for a fee that could rise to £60m, there are question marks about the depth of the champions’ squad, despite Arteta still having at least two options for each position. Eberechi Eze will provide competition on the left for the new boy Christos Tzolis, and the manager has a plethora of central midfielders at his disposal after the arrival of Bruno Guimarães from Newcastle, but there is not much room for manoeuvre should Arsenal experience injuries in attack like they have for the past two seasons.

Gary Neville believes Mikel Arteta should make a significant change to Arsenal’s starting line-up against Chelsea by bringing Eberechi Eze in for summer signing Christos Tzolis.

Eberechi Eze suddenly looks like one of Arsenal’s most important attacking players after a summer that dramatically reduced Mikel Arteta’s options on the left side. Leandro Trossard, Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus have all departed, removing three experienced forwards who could operate across multiple positions. Want more CaughtOffside coverage?

Manchester United legend Gary Neville (Picture: Sky Sports) Gary Neville says he would be ‘stunned’ if Mikel Arteta did not drop summer signing Christos Tzolis for Arsenal’s Premier League clash against Chelsea. Tzolis, who joined Arsenal in July in a £34m deal from Club Brugge, started the Gunners’ Premier League opener against Coventry City and Monday’s win at Aston Villa. The Greece international impressed in pre-season and in Arsenal’s victories over Manchester City in the Community Shield and Coventry in the Premier League. But Tzolis was less influential at Villa Park and was hooked at half-time, with Eberechi Eze impressing following his introduction from the bench.

Neville believes Eze has earned a start for Arsenal’s intriguing clash against in-form Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday and says Tzolis could do with a watching brief from the dugout. ‘Look, it’s early for him,’ Neville said on his Sky Sports podcast when asked about Tzolis’ start at Arsenal. ‘I didn’t get too carried away last week and said I wanted to see a bit more from him. ‘The Community Shield was obviously promising and then the game against Coventry as well. But I did think he was doing one thing well, he seems to just cut in, and right-backs will start to understand that. Arsenal summer signing Christos Tzolis (Picture: Getty) ‘Matty Cash just set about him during the Aston Villa game, he was really aggressive and it was a little bit of a mauling. That will be good for Tzolis, just making him aware of what this is going to be like. ‘He’s not going to have it easy and he’s going to have opponents who want to get really close to him and make it difficult for him. It was a tough game for him. ‘But I thought Eze did really well when he came on. There’s a lot going on in that midfield for Eze given they’ve got Rice, Odegaard and now Guimaraes in there. Eberechi Eze after Arsenal’s win at Aston Villa (Picture: Getty) ‘I think he may have to get really good at being a left-sided player for Arsenal. Sometimes you just need to look at which positions are opening up for you and basically take it. ‘I thought he did really well in the second half, I would be surprised if he doesn’t play next week against Chelsea. ‘It’s a big game and Mikel Arteta might just have to tell Tzolis, “I’m not going to put you into this one but watch this match.” Eze has a bit more strength about him and certainly more experience in the Premier League. {"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Arteta praises Arsenal's maturity in 1-0 win over Aston Villa","contentUrl":"https:\/\/videos.metro.co.uk\/video\/met\/2026\/09\/01\/1030376710448723935\/480x270_MP4_1030376710448723935.mp4","description":"Arteta also stressed the importance of squad depth after Konsa was substituted on for his debut for a Mosquera struggling with an injury.","duration":"T4M26S","height":270,"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/i.dailymail.com\/1s\/2026\/09\/01\/07\/110968591-0-image-a-1_1788244180392.jpg","uploadDate":"2026-09-01T07:29:49+0100","width":480} To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Up Next Previous Page Next Page window.addEventListener('metroVideo:relatedVideosCarouselLoaded', function(data) { if (typeof(data.detail) === 'undefined' || typeof(data.detail.carousel) === 'undefined' || typeof(data.detail.carousel.el_) === 'undefined') { return; } var player = data.detail.carousel.el_; var container = player.closest('.metro-video-player'); var placeholder = container.querySelector('.metro-video-player__up-next-placeholder'); if (placeholder) { container.removeChild(placeholder); container.classList.add('metro-video-player--related-videos-loaded'); } }); ‘I would be stunned if Eze doesn’t play next week because he played really well in the second half at Aston Villa.’ Michael Owen a
Mikel Arteta was delighted after Arsenal’s 1-0 win over Aston Villa (Picture: AFP) Mikel Arteta has promised there will be ‘enough minutes for everyone’ after Viktor Gyokeres was an unused substitute for the second week in a row. Arsenal continued their flawless start to the defence of their Premier League title following a narrow 1-0 win at Villa Park last night. Bukayo Saka’s goal, just before the hour mark, ultimately proved the difference as the Gunners again leaned into their defensive solidity to record a sixth clean sheet in their last seven top flight matches, dating back to last season’s run-in. Arteta was able to demonstrate the depth of options he has at his disposal during the closing stages, having already introduced Eberechi Eze at the break after a disappointing 45 minutes for summer recruit Christos Tzolis. Exclusive Premier League previews Get ahead of the start of the season with our weekly football newsletter. Sign up now for free. Eze played a big role in the decisive moment of the match, but impressive cameos from Mikel Merino, Bruno Guimaraes and Ezri Konsa, who replaced the injury-stricken Cristhian Mosequera, helped seal another three points. Gyokeres, meanwhile, was left to stew on the bench as he was against Coventry last Friday night, while he was only brought on with 15 minutes remaining in the Community Shield victory over Manchester City. The Sweden international scored 22 goals in all competitions last term following his high-profile move from Sporting Lisbon, but failed to fully convince and ultimately lost his place to Kai Havertz once the former Chelsea star returned to full fitness. Viktor Gyokeres was left on the bench against Aston Villa (Picture: Getty) Gyokeres has been linked with a move to Barcelona this summer and has been touted as a potential makeweight in a deal that could involve Julian Alvarez moving from Atletico Madrid to Arsenal. Whether there is any movement on deadline day remains to be seen, but in terms of Gyokeres’ lack of involvement last night, Arteta hinted he was influenced by the physical condition of players who were unable to complete 90 minutes. He said: ‘It was a squad victory and we knew it was going to be a long match. The game was going to shift and they were going to have moments because they are very capable of doing that, especially when you lose the ball in certain areas. {"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Arteta praises Arsenal's maturity in 1-0 win over Aston Villa","contentUrl":"https:\/\/videos.metro.co.uk\/video\/met\/2026\/09\/01\/1030376710448723935\/480x270_MP4_1030376710448723935.mp4","description":"Arteta also stressed the importance of squad depth after Konsa was substituted on for his debut for a Mosquera struggling with an injury.","duration":"T4M26S","height":270,"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/i.dailymail.com\/1s\/2026\/09\/01\/07\/110968591-0-image-a-1_1788244180392.jpg","uploadDate":"2026-09-01T07:29:49+0100","width":480} To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Up Next Previous Page Next Page window.addEventListener('metroVideo:relatedVideosCarouselLoaded', function(data) { if (typeof(data.detail) === 'undefined' || typeof(data.detail.carousel) === 'undefined' || typeof(data.detail.carousel.el_) === 'undefined') { return; } var player = data.detail.carousel.el_; var container = player.closest('.metro-video-player'); var placeholder = container.querySelector('.metro-video-player__up-next-placeholder'); if (placeholder) { container.removeChild(placeholder); container.classList.add('metro-video-player--related-videos-loaded'); } }); ‘There are still things to improve but I loved the attitude of every single player that was on the pitch. ‘It was a squad performance and a squad victory today and I’m sad for the ones that didn’t have the chance to play because they all want to be participating. ‘But sometimes you have certain issues with players physica
