Arsene Wenger left it late again to rush through transfers on the final day of trading and the jury is out on whether his new boys will finally bring a title. While Arsenal chief executive Ivan Gazidis said the squad was good enough to win the Premiership, Arsenal are only eighth after three games.

Wenger is in the last year of his contract and his future could largely depend on if these two — along with Granit Xhaka and Rob Holding — provide the last pieces of a Premier League winning side puzzle.

Manchester City, Manchester United, Chelsea and surprise package Hull City maintained their 100 percent records in the Premier League this weekend, but champions Leicester City and Arsenal remain winless.
