Despite the transfer window coming to an end, Arsenal have not made any new signings for their attacking lineup. However, manager Mikel Arteta remains content with the depth of his squad. The Gunners have had a strong start to the season, winning their first two games against Wolves and Aston Villa. As a team that has been the runner-up in the last two seasons, they are expected to continue their success. However, they face a tough upcoming schedule with matches against Brighton, Spurs, and Manchester City, as well as additional Champions League fixtures.
Unfortunately, Arsenal has already faced an early setback with an injury to Mikel Merino, which could keep him out for several weeks. This has raised questions among fans as to why the team did not strengthen their attack during the transfer window. Arteta addressed this concern by pointing out that the same group of players scored 91 goals last season. However, the departures of Eddie Nketiah, Fabio Vieira, and Emile Smith Rowe have left the team with fewer options.
There were rumors of potential short-term solutions, such as Raheem Sterling, but Arteta remained tight-lipped about the possibility of the Chelsea winger joining on deadline day. He expressed satisfaction with the current options available to him, stating that the depth of the squad cannot drastically change within a short period of time. However, he also mentioned the team's efforts to bring in more quality players, especially from their own academy.
Arteta believes that the team's success in recent years has been due to the shared goal-scoring responsibilities among players. He hopes to continue this trend while also aiming to have players who can score 25-30 goals in a season. This balance between teamwork and individual performance is what the team is striving for. With this in mind, Arsenal fans can expect to see their team give their all in every game.
