Read Arsenal verdict
Arsenal fans will be delighted to see some high praise coming from one of their former players, who in his prime, was among the club’s best in recent years.
It will excite a lot of fans to see the club getting the credit that they believe they deserve from their former players in terms of their recent transfer activity.
Fans have been very excited about the new additions to the squad over the summer and the big-money signing of Nicolas Pepe has raised the expectations at the Emirates.
With many previously expecting a quiet summer, Arsenal surprised everyone with their big spending and now Unai Emery has the task of gelling the new-look side together and pushing the club back into the top four.
Vermaelen has tipped the Gunners to improve this time around and with the new signings, the top four should be a real possibility for the club.
