Five veterans who could lead Arsenal to glory - Part 4
Article continued from Part 3.
If Bendtner and Arshavin do depart, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 will lack sufficient depth in the squad and will need sufficient experience up front to bolster the squad. The Uruguayan international that led the South Americans to the World Cup semi-final and also was awarded
the golden boot for his goal tally, will be a welcome signing for Arsenal.
Harry Redknapp has been pursuing the player who is said to be keen on an exit from Athletico Madrid. He has been valued by Madrid to be worth 20-million-dollars but could be signed for a bargain this summer. The 31-year-old has immense amounts of pace in
him which is the driving force in his game and will be a joy to watch in the Premier League.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan):
As long as we are talking about the World Cup heroes in a list of veterans, then we should mention the Dutchman. He is strongly linked with a move to Old Trafford this summer. If Cesc Fabregas departs for the Nou Camp this summer, then Arsenal will be in
great need of a mid-field dominator and a proven playmaker. There are none currently who are better than the veteran Inter Milan player, Wesley Sneijder. He has been in tremendous form over the past couple of years and would cost Arsenal hierarchy to flex
their financial muscles if they are to successfully land him out of the clutches of Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson.
Arsenal will have to enter into a bidding war with the Premier League winners and until and unless they are absolutely determined over the Dutchman’s signature, we will lose out to the Red Devils. Although he will most probably favour Manchester United over
Arsenal, there is no harm is daytime fantasies.
Scott Parker (West Ham):
Out of the five veterans that have been mentioned, Parker is the only realistic option for the gunners. West Ham has already been relegated from the Premier League and their manager Avram Grant has been sacked. The last thing the PFA Player of the Year would
want is to play in the Premiership and Arsenal is in the driving seat to prize the 5-million rated star away from the Hammers. The 30-year-old will form an integral partnership in the middle of the park and there are no secrets to his leadership qualities.
He has at times reduced the West Ham squad to tears with his motivational speeches. The future of Rosicky, Arshavin, Fabregas, Diaby and Denilson in doubt, Arsene Wenger will be looking to strengthen his squad with a proven leader to add some steel into the
spine of the team.
Parker is experienced in the Premier League and is a winner. His winning mentality will be go beyond the Arsenal starting 11 and may well prove the difference next season. He has a good eye for killer passes and is also a hard a swift tackler of the ball.
In the four years with the Hammers, he has made 107 appearances and would be good for the spine of the team. He is the best and the most viable option for the gunners at present.
