1) Morgan Schneiderlin – Southampton
The Saints’ French midfielder could be the best option for Arsenal and Arsene Wenger. He is already acclimatised to the Premier League, would fit perfectly into the team’s playing style, and his stats show that he fares very well in comparison to others on the list. He was linked with both Arsenal and Tottenham over the summer, with neither club meeting Southampton’s valuation of him. He may prefer to rejoin former manager Maurico Pochettino at Spurs, but if fellow Frenchman Arsene Wenger can convince Schneiderlin to come to Arsenal he would no doubt solve the club’s midfield woes.
