Ranking Arsenal's signings in the 2017/2018 season

Manchester United v Arsenal - Premier League
Dino had an impressive debut against the Red Devils

#4 Sead Kolasinac

Arsenal v Swansea City - Premier League
Kolasinac will surely be an irrepressible force

The arrival of Kolasinac from Schalke on a free transfer made the fans optimistic about this season. He has all the natural attributes of a brutish defender who can tear apart any attacking lineup in the world. The club was long craving for such a player, both physically strong and tactically clever, in their squad and he certainly had the best start to his Arsenal career.

Scoring goals, providing sublime assists, everything looked just so perfect for the Bosnian Hulk. But then, one injury later, everything just went downhill. Recurring problems with his left ankle has played spoilsport, and the mighty Bosnian is finding it even more difficult to regain his rhythm.

It has become a curse for Arsenal. We see multiple players in our squad who have the talent to make it big but plagued by injuries, most of their careers take a downward steep.

Kolasinac will be an important player for the team and Emery has a huge task in bringing out the beast inside him. Arsenal conceded 30 times while he was on the team sheet and for a player of his standards, that number is a huge concern. The club, his teammates, the fans, everyone expects more from this guy. 2 goals and 4 assists in 27 appearances, not bad for a defender, but he certainly has the potential to be much much more lethal.
