#1 Matteo Guendouzi
Guendouzi has without a doubt been the shining star in what otherwise could seem to be a lacklustre start to the season for Arsenal. Losses to top six rivals Chelsea and Manchester City in the first two weeks would have had Arsenal fans stressing if it wasn't for the rise of Matteo Guendouzi.
Signing from French league two side Lorient for an undisclosed fee, you would be forgiven if you were to say you had never heard of him when he was signed by the North London powerhouse. He has fast become the linchpin in Arsenal's midfield and seeming as though he can develop into the central midfielder Arsenal fans have been dreaming about ever since the departure of Vierra all those years ago.
The second division of French football is showing great promise as other premier league stars such as Mahrez and Kante are both famous for coming out of nowhere to win the title with Leicester. If Guendouzi continues these excellent performances with Arsenal he can expect a big pay rise in his near future.
