DC: Gabriel
Perhaps set to be promoted to first choice after arriving in January, Gabriel looks a good long-term replacement for Per Mertesacker.
DC: Laurent Koscielny
Still first choice, Laurent Koscielny deserves to stay a key part of the Gunners’ first-team for next season.
MC: Francis Coquelin
A fine defensive midfielder, Francis Coquelin has had a great breakthrough season and is likely to keep his place in the starting XI.
Joining him, however, could be the superb Arturo Vidal from Juventus, with growing speculation that Arsenal want to beat Liverpool to the Chilean international.
