Here is what their team could look like if all goes according to plan.
GK – Petr Cech
May seem a little controversial to link a Chelsea star to their rivals, but with neither David Ospina or Wojciech Szczesny truly impressing and Cech needing more game time, this deal could just well fit.

RB – Mathieu Debuchy
As good as Calum Chambers has been since signing from Southampton the 19-year-old is clearly a better central defender than right-back and Debuchy is needed back as soon as possible.
CB – Winston Reid
Chambers has been good, but is perhaps still too inexperienced to be relied upon consistently and with Per Mertesacker increasingly becoming a liability this West Ham United star could be the ideal purchase.

CB – Laurent Koscielny
Like Debuchy this fellow Frenchman is needed back from injury as Koscielny brings a calm and class to the back line that is so clearly lacking when he is absent.
LB – Kieran Gibbs
This left-back has really benefited from the faith put in him by Wenger and Gibbs is even becoming something of a regular for the England national team as well.
CM – Lars Bender
Everyone but the manager himself seems to realise a holding midfielder is needed and Bender is a ready-made player for that role and could also welcome a move from Bayer Leverkusen.

CM – Jack Wilshere
Many said Wilshere needed to prove he could fulfill his potential this season and the 22-year-old appears to have listened as his performances continue to improve for club and country.
RM – Theo Walcott
The England international brings something unique to the Gunners side and as much as the 25-year-old wants to be considered a striker, his best position is definitely on the right flank.
CAM – Aaron Ramsey
It hasn’t been as great a campaign for Ramsey this time around as last year and it may seem a big call to select the Welshman over club record signing Mesut Ozil, but the 2014 World Cup winner just isn’t performing currently.
LM – Alexis Sanchez
Unlike Ozil this 25-year-old has lived up to expectations since a big money move to the Emirates Stadium and although likes playing in the No.10 role is good enough to star anywhere in attack.
ST – Danny Welbeck
His brace against Slovenia for the Three Lions on Saturday showed just what Welbeck is capable of and although Olivier Giroud is solid upfront, this 23-year-old is just more dynamic.
