Gunner supporters must be looking for new players to arrive at the Emirates as soon as possible for next season.
However, before any new star, Arsenal have sealed perhaps the most significant capture first and that is to hire new fitness coach.
According to Goal:
“Shad Forsythe, who is head fitness coach for the Germany national team, has reached an agreement to join Arsene Wenger’s backroom team after the World Cup.”
There is absolutely no doubt that injuries were one of the main concerns why Arsenal stumbled during the second half of the season and finished 4th in PL despite leading the way for months.
Players like Wilshere, Chamberlain, Ramsey, Walcott, Podolski and Ozil etc are by all means top quality stars and Arsenal missed them bad when they were out injured.
No team had more injury concerns last season than Arsenal and hence the signing of new fitness guru in Shad is more important than brining new top stars.
Arsenal do need to reinforce certain departments but they already have world class players in the squad who if kept fit can become a major force to challenge for the title next season right down to the wire.
Arsenal and Arsene Wenger will be hoping that this new hiring will solve Arsenal’s injury crisis faced by the players in the hectic schedule of the season.

Rubbish! Is that what you tagged the most important signee ?
Fabregas is a football prostitute, pretender, dishonesty in all ramification. l want to go to my chilh-hood club, now he has been disgraced by the club he so much, what a pity for this lad? ln the next two years he would ship out.
Wenger is the obstacle ,why blame Fabrigas and wenger said he is not needed at Arsenal ? let wait if chelshit thump us 6 -0 , then, wenger will have to go. Thump me down if u want
Why to blame wenger? There are places which has to be filled it makes no sense to dump cm’s and spoil the morale of players already central midfld its too congested resulting in wilshere moved to left and also ox moved in so where the hell would cesc play????
*For the past couple of years, Arsenal’ve had a relatively worst injury record in the EPL (Arsenal lead the injury league table every season). I very much agree with the headline that signing Shad is the most important, at least for now.
* On Cesc’s, he left us when it mattered most (he funded and fast-tracked his move to Barca in the first place, and prior his move absented himself from traning). Now at his comeback, Arsenal’ve got a handful of options at his preferred position (Centre Attacking Midfield). So, we really don’t need him. Besides, his frustrations at Barca made him swiftly opt for Chelsea when it dawned on him that Arsenal never needed him.
Arsenal as a club is not serious at all. Chelsea destroyed them 6 0 last season and to add to that disgrace they have signed their formal captain fabrigas but instead signing player they are signing fitness coach. Shame to Arsenal fc
