It’s been yet another drastic, season defining week at Arsenal football club. In an eerily similar manner to the previous campaign the Gunners crashed out of the FA Cup at the hands of Sunderland after seeing their Champions League dreams dashed following a thumping from AC Milan. The same arguments have cropped up once again with boss Arsene Wenger bearing the brunt of fans frustration over his reluctance to strengthen the playing squad in the transfer window.

A dressing room filled with too many average players and youngsters lacking in first team experience has hindered Arsenal’s chances of ending their confidence sapping seven-year trophy drought. Attendances are down at the Emirates Stadium and supporters are becoming restless. Essentially the wheels are coming off with their great rivals now taking up the mantle as the number one team in North London.

With that weighing on their minds the board have decided to act declaring that Wenger will have a £55 million summer war chest to rebuild the squad and return the Gunners to their former glories. An abundance of names had been bandied about during the January transfer window with some of Europe’s top talents linked with the Gunners showing they still have the pulling power to attract big names.

Despite Wenger’s reluctance to dip his toes into the transfer market during the winter it’s expected that he will overhaul his squad once the season ends. Who the Frenchman has on his hit-list remains to be seen but one thing is for sure it will be an exciting summer of speculation for Arsenal fans.
