The Prospects of a Resurgent Arsenal

With what is the most anticipated return that this EPL season could witness, the comeback of Eduardo Da Silva, Theo Walcott, Thomas Rosicky, Cesc Fabregas, and the injection of the Russian Wizard sets out to become the most exciting times for Arsenal fans and indeed the team.

Here is a preview on what these individuals would most likely bring to the team on their return and debuts respectively...

Eduardo Da Silva

The "fox in the box" as he is referred to, would most definitely bring the biggest smile to the faces of the fans at the Emirates. His injury came at the time he had started to represent the impeccable finisher Arsene Wenger told the world he would be.

His calmness in front of the goal, verve in the finish, and of great importance, his team work are a sight to behold.

And at a time when Robin Van Persie requires someone with movement (something Adebayor seems to lack now), it would suit the system that Arsenal has been forced to play, especially against teams that come to the Emirates and sit back.

He can be the goal scorer that the Gunners yearn for, at a time when they have needed goals the most.

Theo Walcott

The pace of this sprint star and his ability to get behind defences has been what the team has most importantly missed.

Some people would say it is creativity that has been lacking, but even when they have managed to hold the ball, teams have forced them to play centrally, because they lack the required pace to open up opponent flanks.

His ability to put in those low crosses across goal would have benefited Adebayor the most, but with Van Persie and Eduardo, and on a couple of occasions, the presence of Nasri around the box, a lot more goals would come.

It would be sensible, though, to not expect as much aggressiveness, especially in the first week or two upon his return....

Thomas Rosicky

The bad patch for Arsenal, all but, started at the end of January and that was when they lost "Mozart"—the one whose ability to turn things around has been crocked for more than a year, and it must be a national relief that he is back.

I can't forget those goals against Liverpool in 2007, at Anfield in the FA Cup, because those goals defined him.

He would bring mobility, and at anytime, slot into any position in the attacking sense to cause damage to any opposition.

Cesc Fabregas

"El Capitan" and his measured maturity has been sorely missed. Even though the team has not lost since, the team has struggled to open up teams with the passing efficiency that it has been revered for.

His maturity, eye for the killer pass, vision, technique, dead ball ability, and presence have been lacking, and it has allowed teams more comfort when they play the Gunners.

His anticipated return in a short time, more so, earlier than estimated, would do Arsenal a lot of good.

Andrey Arsharvin

He is not a comeback, but he must be mentioned.

What would he bring to this team? Pace, brilliance, verve, aggressiveness, a change in team movement, and a cunning eye for goal.

That much is enough said, plus the fact that at the time of this magic reunion, there would seem to be that depth in the squad...
