Very few Arsenal fans would argue that their best goalkeeper is currently on loan in Rome

#4 Kasper Schmeichel

Schmeichel is a better keeper than the Arsenal number one and would be a very good signing for the Gunners

Kasper Schmeichel has proved over the last two seasons that he is a very accomplished goalkeeper. The Dane was part of a title winning side last year, and even though his team have struggled this year, he has been a shining light in a Premier League season to forget for Leicester.

But, Leicester have had a successful season in the Champions League and Schmeichel has been a crucial part of that run. He made a strong save to make sure Leicester got to nine points from three games, and a very important penalty save in the away leg against Sevilla.

There is absolutely no doubt Cech has proven himself on the big stage before, however at 34, Schmeichel is a better keeper than the Arsenal number one and would be a very good signing for the Gunners.

If Arsenal are playing under a new boss next season, Schmeichel would find it hard to turn down Arsenal, similarly to how his team-mate N’Golo Kante left for Chelsea this season.
