After a slow start to the summer, the GoPoners should be happy to look forward to the new campaign that has completed three quick offers.
Kepa Arrizabalaga joined Chelsea as the new goalkeeper from No. 2 from Arsenal from Chelsea, who rebuilt his midfield with the arrivals of Martin Zubimendi from Real Sociedad and Christian Norgaard from Brentford.
A deal is currently also in the works to bring a second blues star to the Emirates stage in Noni Madueke.
While some followers raise the eyebrows to the adoption of two players who do not want their London rivals in the eyebrows, Perry Grove insists that it was a great business so far from the Arsenal hierarchy.
There is also more to come -the output of a Top Class striker could make this the best transfer window that the club has enjoyed for years.
And while the Gunners and Sporting Lisbon are still arguing about a fee for Viktor Gyokoker, Groves informed the North London Club that he should end the money in search of a scorer.
Norgaard negotiates a stroke of genius
With the £ 15 million signed signatures, Grove to Talk Sport Breakfast said: “People were surprised by the Norgaard deal, but in the Premier League he was in Brentford’s most consistent player. I think he is very, very, very underestimated in this midfield.
“We all know that Arteta has a very specific style of play and tactics he wants to implement. Norgaard is six foot plus and we know that Areta likes the big, strong and physical nature of players.
“I think what is underestimated with Norgaard is his fit. He has a good view. He is good at defending this 1v1 duelle, but he also has a bit of creativity.
“Jorginho went out and I think Norgaard is an upgrade. We need a stronger squad and Norgaard is an upgrade from Jorgho because it is more mobile, he has more in his legs.

“I know that people say that he is 31 years old, and in my game days her summit had gone until then, but nowadays the highlight of these players is probably between 27 and 33 because they take care of themselves.”
Surprise Madueke Move offers something new
After the English wing player from Chelsea, proves, said: “The Madueke deal has to be a bit left, as I have to admit. I don’t think anyone saw it.
“But if you look at it, I think why Areta went for Madueke when teams come to the emirates and they sit deep, we have difficulty disassembling them, and Madueke is brilliant in 1v1 situations.
“If you look at his statistics compared to Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Martinelli, you are very similar from last season, apart from the dribbling per 90 minutes and dribbles.
“And the people forget that he is also six feet, so there is still one in the basketball club.”

Gyokoker is a Gooner – do it!
Groves said: “Gyokoker is the one, but there is a stalemate because he has the feeling that he said no to a gentlemen agreement with the hierarchy in Sporting Lisbon at a certain price.
“But as a Goover, if you bring in up to 60 million GBP and argue over £ 3 million or £ 4 million, nothing is £ 3 or £ 4 at this price – just pay the money!
“If you as a player are on the market for 60 million pounds, you want the club to offer a little more to show how much he comes to your club.
“My sources tell me and I don’t do it, Gyokoker was a Gooner as a small child. He always supported Arsenal and it is well documented that he wants to come to us.
“This is the most frustrating because there will be a massive sigh of relief from our part of North London, we get a center forward, then this squad looks incredibly strong.”
The goal is clear – Arteta needs a title
When asked whether all of these offers would put pressure on the Areta, to win something big this season, add up: “Well, yes, in short. I think he knows that too.
“If it were not for Arteta, we weren’t where we are. We were irrelevant before taking over.
“We weren’t quite as pants as Manchester United and this mob on the street, but we were like eight and seventh and irrelevant.
“Areta brought back the club’s soul, he changed this culture and brought a lot of young hungry players who actually take care of the club.
“Now he has to win either the Premier League or the Champions League, and I think he gets that too.”
