#15: Midfield & Midfield Depth (feat. Scouted Llew)

With everybody & their dog talking about Arsenal's attempts to buy at least one attacker this transfer window, Towells and Collings are joined by Llew from Scouted Football to discuss an area arguably in even greater need of reinforcement - midfield. We discuss the options we currently have, whether we should/will make any midfield signings in this window, and what we think the future of Arsenal's midfield looks like.
