Similar to the Sanchez conundrum, Arsenal will have to find a position for Mkhitaryan to fit into. His favoured position is being the central attacking midfielder but Arsenal’s current best offensive player, Mesut Ozil also plays there and it seems highly unlikely that the Armenian will get to play in that role, at least until the summer.

He has also played at the right side of the attack for United and for now, that looks like the position that he will occupy for Arsenal.

It also needs to be noted that he failed to thrive without Paul Pogba in that United lineup, which means there is a dire need for a proper central midfielder to support his agility and technique.

Arsenal have a couple of them in Jack Wilshere and Aaron Ramsey but can they help him revive his confidence?
