One to watch Marouane Chamakh.It seems there is a fair amount of optimism around various parts of North London and beyond, that this could be the year Arsenal win their first silverware for five years. When Patrick Viera slotted in that penalty against his old foes Manchester United, did he really think that his soon to be ex employers would have to wait so long to repeat the experience? For too many years now Arsenal have suffered from serious injuries Saquon Barkley Jersey up front, who knows what would have happened in 2008 if the squad had not had such an adverse mental reaction to Eduardos horrific injury, and what about last season? Van Persie was arguably Europes form striker before his long absence. Cue the need for new blood in attackwith the protracted Fabregas saga (which has similar elements to Cristiano Ronaldos drawn out affair) stealing the headlines, the wise old owl Mr Wenger has gone about his transfer busine s with a minimum of fu s. These dealings include a talented front man looking to take the Premier League by stormMarouane Chamakh. At 6 ft 2 in and with an athletic build, Arsenal fans will be hoping that these physical attributes will bring more to the table than perhaps Bentner has thus far, or even Adebayor before him. Having spent his career with Bordeaux, Chamakh has found the target 56 times in 230 appearances. Having ama sed an impre sive amount of silverware during his time in France, he has managed to make his mark on the European stage alongside his domestic succe s avid Champions League viewers may recall Chamakh finding the target five times last year, including goals against the likes of Juventus and Bayern Munich. His international career is yet to take off, despite swapping his allegiance to Morocco in 2003, the fortunes of the national team have yet to reach the heights seen in the Mustapha Hadji era of the late nineties, as a result Chamakh has not received the required service to make an impact on a major tournament.Its clearly encouraging for Wenger to see Chamakh having played all 38 league games last year, providing he stays clear from injury, it will be interesting to see how the talented Moroccan links up with the left footed brilliance of Robin Van Persie, who when analysing his previous injury/suspension record, may not be expected to play every single game. If Fabegras does decide to stay for another year, then the prospect of the World Cup winner providing Chamakh with service really should send shivers down the spine of Premier League defences. Although at this stage unproven in the Premier League, Arsenals new target man po se ses the size, speed and finishing ability to make him a dark horse for top scorer this season, and maybe, just maybe, his goals will lead to Fabregas repeating the feat of his predece sor Viera by lifting a much needed trophy.
