Arsenal Transfer News: Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta completely changed the entire complexion of the Arsenal family with his philosophy. The Spaniard instilled aura into his players ever so well and the results in the ongoing edition of the English Premier League serve as a testament to the fact. Arsenal are on top of the Premier League points table.
The Gunners have successfully scored a half-century in the first half of the season. They approached all the games with a fresh perspective which is why they got a better route map and clarity in competing with the teams. Moreover, they emerged as the victorious side on 16 occasions out of 19 games.
Arsenal have played out for a draw on two occasions whereas they lost just once. They surrendered only once at the hands of the Red Devils at Old Trafford. On the other hand, they drew against the likes of Newcastle United and Southampton earlier. Having done with the first half of the season, the Gunners are gearing up for the second half of the season.
They will have to be at their imperious best in order to make a bid for the fourth trophy. In fact, they haven’t faced the defending champions, Manchester City yet. Arsenal will play two games against Pep Guardiola-led Manchester City at home and away this season.

However, due to some reasons, the move couldn’t materialize in the first place. Now that Jorginho has arrived in the Emirates, he has completed the medical and the customary photoshoot session. He will be looking forward to bringing his experience to the table, which will certainly help the Gunners in the second half of the season.
Meanwhile, renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano said that Mikel was very thrilled with the signing of the Italian midfielder on the deadline day. The journalist stated that the manager is totally in love with Jorginho’s experience and the scintillating impact that he can bring to the club that is gunning for the title.
“I want to start with Arsenal, we know they wanted a central midfielder to help Mikel Arteta with the squad depth in that position. They were considering Moises Caicedo as a top option,” Fabrizio Romano said on his official Youtube channel.
“It is important to mention that on Jorginho, Mikel Arteta made the difference. He wanted Jorginho, he’s a big fan of Jorginho, he’s in love with his experience and how popular Jorginho is in the dressing room, and all of these factors made Arsenal go for Jorginho as the best last-minute option,” he further added. Meanwhile, Arsenal will lock horns with the Everton football club in the upcoming fixture on February 4, Saturday at Goodison Park.
