The Gunners finished fifth last term and will be hopeful their new signings can help them force their way back into the big time at the third time of asking.<\/p>\n

Nicolas Pepe is the man that has got the fans excited, with the Lille forward expected to complete a move to the Emirates Stadium in the coming days.<\/p>\n

The Ivory Coast international will bring pace \u2013 and a significant goal threat \u2013 to the Arsenal front line, opening up plenty of options for Emery.<\/p>\n

The same can be said for Dani Ceballos, whose versatility means that Emery will have an alternative for the No.10 role instead of Mesut Ozil.<\/p>\n

The Real Madrid man can play in a variety of roles, with his penchant for a duel perhaps better suited to a tough away game compared to German’s lackadaisical style.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, if the pursuit of Celtic’s Kieran Tierney ends in success then the prospect of the Scotsman being paired with Hector Bellerin as wing-backs will surely have supporters salivating.<\/p>\n

Everything seems to be moving in the right direction for the north Londoners but it should not be forgotten that the majority of their rivals have also made a number of key signings.<\/p>\n

The battle for top-four supremacy is set to be as tight as ever and Emery will need to get his set up spot on if the Gunners are going to reclaim a place in the elite.<\/p>\n
