Arsenal Transfers: 5 PROVEN Premier League Players Wenger Must Buy

4. Asmir Begovic

Asmir Begovic has steadily been establishing himself as one of the Premier League's best and most consistent goalkeepers. He has risen to prominence gradually at Stoke City after arriving in 2010, and this season played in all 38 of their league games. Along the way, the Bosnian international has impressed with his saving ability and his capabilities in aerial duels. The man stands at 6'5" which gives him an incredible presence from set pieces and makes him very effective at snuffing out danger from crosses. He would be a great fit at Arsenal, where the goalkeeping situation is rather uncertain. Wojciech Szczesny at the best of times is a brilliant shot stopper, but lacks presence and composure from set pieces, a weakness which has exposed Arsenal on numerous occasions. Begovic would come in as a Premier League proven replacement, and at an age where he could conceivably serve 10 years between the sticks. Arsenal have really lacked stability in the goalkeeping department for a number of years now, and what they would pay for Begovic would seem to be a worthwhile investment in the future.
