What that actually means is 'we have only watched them on highlights and only know where they have come from and haven't the foggiest about their strengths and weaknesses. This is the problem really, many pundits are often talking from a season behind reality. Fabianski to them is the keeper who came in cold, low on confidence and made blunder after blunder. Hopefully by next season he will be the actual keeper that we see today.

The trouble is, that squad could be a little attack heavy whilst the midfield could do with another fit player such as Ramsey or Diaby. Van Persie, Walcott and Bendtner will all be expecting to start whilst Carlos Vela and Jay Emmanuel-Thomas would have wanted a chance to show that they
