5 Players Arsenal Should Target From The Premier League

4. Morgan Schniederlin

Arsenal’s second most talked about position that needs addressing is a defensive midfielder and Morgan Schniederlin fits Arsenal like a glove. I wrote this about him in another article of mine, “Five Defensive Midfielders Arsenal Should Target”. (See here: https://fresharsenal.com/five-realistic-arteta-replacements/)

“He is an athletic, natural footballer and would absolutely fit into Arsenal’s style of play and philosophy. What is surprising about him is his overall ability. He tackles and passes excellently while providing energy in the midfield.”

In short, the Frenchman can do it all. Passes, defends, and reads the game well. He is naturally a box-to-box midfielder, but his ability, professionalism, and willingness to help his team allows him to play in the holding midfielder role. The only downside is that Southampton might be keen to hold onto him due to the imminent raid of the club’s best players.
