Arsenal Transfers: 8 Players Wenger Must Sign

8. Steven N'Zonzi

Arsenal's midfield has been crying out for an injection of steel over the past few years, and the acquisition last summer of Granit Xhaka looked to have at last answered fans' prayers.

But a year later doubts are beginning to creep in. The 24-year-old is a capable player in possession, but his ability to win the ball back and bring order to an often wayward team has been called into question (particularly given his own proclivity for rash tackles).

Sevilla's Steven N'Zonzi would make sense as an alternative. The 28-year-old is already acquainted with the demands of the Premier League, having spent six seasons on the books of Blackburn and Stoke, and at 6'3", would provide some much-needed physicality in the middle of the park.
