Speaking to Football Insider, McAvennie also said that Arteta could be interested in a back-up for Kieran Tierney this summer. “I think they’ve brought decent players in. I think (Gabriel) Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko, that’s two good players. I’m not really too convinced about who they’ve got holding in midfield. (Thomas) Partey hasn’t hit the ground running. In terms of full-backs, he might be talking about getting cover for (Kieran) Tierney," said McAvennie. Fulham agree deal to sign Bernd Leno Bernd Leno will move to Craven Cottage this summer.

Paddy Kenny tips Gunners to break into top four Former Leeds United goalkeeper Paddy Kenny believes Arsenal could break into the top four in the Premier League next season. The Gunners invested heavily in the squad this summer and have done very well in pre-season. Speaking to Football Insider, Kenny said that the north London side look in good form. “It builds confidence, even though it is only pre-season. I always find it difficult that Premier League teams play each other, I don’t get it. I have always found it strange, you don’t see Championship or League One clubs doing that. Tuchel came out after that game and was really upset with his Chelsea team, but you have to remember it’s only pre-season," said Kenny. He added: “When the whistle goes on the first day of the season, that’s when the nitty gritty starts. You always want to win games. so it isn’t the be-all and end-all. Arsenal look in good form; they are playing some brilliant stuff, from what I have seen. I think they will be challenging for the top four again this season.” Paul Merson predicts Arsenal vs Liverpool and other EPL GW 10 fixtures!
