Why this man should be Arsenal’s NEXT summer signing

Lukas Podolski has finally been officially announced as a Gunner. We knew this ages ago, the only thing that held the announcement back were the problems that were being experienced at his former club FC Koln.

We had an early start adding value and depth to our squad, which is great to see. The question now is, who do we go for next?

I have a simple and straight forward answer to this question, and we don’t even have to look far – Yossi Benayoun.

The on loan Israeli has been brilliant for us when he has featured. He’s experienced, has great technical ability, is highly creative and a superb team player. Benayoun has shown interest in playing for us in recent weeks, so why not sign him permanently when the season is up? Chelsea donโ€™t look like they really need him, as they have an overload of midfielders amongst their squad.

To put it simply, Yossi is a brilliant player and one we can not let pass us by, especially after seeing what he can bring to the table first hand this season.

If we sign him then maybe we can go for Eden Hazard and the rest of those high-profile players everyone keeps yapping on about.

But having seasoned heads in the squad certainly won’t hurt us, especially when they are playing well and can offer something to the side like Yossi Benayoun does.

With the experience from the ‘older players’ and the flair from the younger ones, I believe we will be and look even more dangerous next campaign, which of course will mean that we will finally get our hands on some silverware next season.

Do you agree? Should Yossi Benayoun be our next summer signing, or is there another player we should be concentrating on?

    Thanking you arsenal fans for brought this up.

    The guy is fantastic player, look for what he has contributed to the team this season. He is disciplinable guy, ready to grow always…..he is a good player.

    Let him acquire the contract for 1 year period since he is getting older.

    But don’t forget to put pressure on HAZARD transfer this time….we need this kind of a player.

    no doubt he is a good player,but for GOD’s sake we are the arsenals a great club indeed,we shouldnt b settling 4 a rejected player from chelski.everly gunners

  • clockendjim says:

    I have always thought Benayoun to be greatly under-appreciated wherever he has played. Particularly at Liverpool where he came on as sub time and again and saved the scousers’ bacon.
    He has given 100% for Arsenal this season; just look at the way he fought to get the ball back at Stoke which led to our goal.
    If we get Jack Wilshere back fit next season (please oh please) then Yossi’s opportunities will be less, but if he is happy with that, what a great squad player

    Quartz,ar u realy an arsenal fan? Pls such people(quartz) shuld be ban frm dis sit!!!

  • gunnering says:

    1 Benayoun is better than 100 denilson.

  • bonaroca says:

    I think that Benayoun is under rated. While at Arsenal he has given good service, but like Roscisky he is a player who most probably can’t play more then 30 firt class matches in a season.For sure he a good fill in and also give good service in the reserves and help the up and coming future young players.

  • Chris Doyle says:

    Agreed and agreed and ……….. agreed :)), the best next signing should be Clint Dampsy from Fulham. He’s in the form of his life and his direct approach is such a good assest, that we are lacking at Arsenal at the moment. And final signining, a very good defend, so that will do the Business for Mr. Wenger this summer ๐Ÿ˜‰
