Gary Armstrong 
Okay, by now the news that Arsenal are set to move in for for Patrick Herrmann is out already, and he’s not a young promising player that Arsene Wenger’s side is not aware of anymore. But more than two months ago, I wrote an article suggesting German players that Arsenal should consider, and Patrick Herrmann was one of them. Now let’s have a closer look at the player and why he could be a great signing for Arsenal.
With the knockout stages of the Champions League fast approaching, and the identities of most qualifiers now known, I decided to take a quick look at three teams who may seem to be favorites to win the illustrious cup.
While Aaron Ramsey had had a terrific pre-season to add to his incredible closing stages of last seasons, even the most optimistic Arsenal fan could not have predicted at the beginning of the season the immense scoring form that he would be in.

Yesterday, out of sheer fun and boredom, I sat down and tried to come up with a list of the top five players in the English Premier League. I found out that due to the immense quality of players currently plying their trade in the English League, that it is VERY hard to be able to muster such a list without any hitches in the decision making process along the way.

This season Arsenal have been absolutely brilliant, facing various different challenges and overcoming them one way or another, barring a few mishaps here and there. Therefore, it would be hard to pick Arsenal’s three best games this season, but I thought I would give it a try.
Avid Premier League watchers might have dismissed Southampton’s top-four surge as a merely good form, especially having seen recent similar surges fade away as the season progressed – examples of this may include Newcastle and to some extent Hull City before them. However, this season, it seems as if Southampton are here to stay.
Boca Juniors lie in 4th bottom position in the Torneo Final in Argentina after only managing to secure one victory from their opening 10 games.
20 year old striker Jack McInerney leads the Major League Soccer scoring charts with 6 goals from the opening 7 games of the season.
