There is one thing that Arsenal need to do this transfer window

Transfer windows are periods of madness, chaos and instability ending with a final day manic rush and Arsenal should do everything in their power to mitigate the distraction that transfer windows become.

To do that they need to move fast, get their business done, make an announcement that no more signings will be done and then get on with their pre-season work.

Of course, if an opportunity too good to miss comes along then they must act but apart from that they really should conclude all their business quickly.

It means that the squad will be more settled, the fans will settle down and all the useless but entertaining transfer gossip can be ignored.

I recall Manchester City doing that a couple of seasons back and they got off to a flyer, players do not like to be unsettled, they want to know whether they will be at the club or not and not sat around listening to speculation over their futures.

No doubt there will be some backlash from the fans, why was this player not sold, why have we not bought this player and so on but after a few days, once the realisation hits home, the fans will settle down as well and instead of debating who should be sold or brought in they will be discussing tactics and formation.

We have enough problems at Arsenal without a ton of transfer sagas dragging on through the summer causing disturbances that we do not need right now.

However, if Arsenal does conclude their transfer business quickly they have to get it right as well because if they do not then the situation could actually be worse.
