3. Freshness

Arsenal have been exhausted these past few weeks. International break is a blessing but the star players are still being used in internationals. And even if they are resting they will be back for a heavy dose of games upon the end of the break. That exhaustion is going to kick up again.

Arsene Wenger is even toying with the idea of giving Alexis Sanchez a break.

Arsenal need another able-bodied midfielder that can step in and provide no drop-off in talent. Jack Wilshere is not going to be ready to play every match right off the bat. But just a match every here and there, giving Santi Cazorla a break, giving Aaron Ramsey a break. That is invaluable.

Arsenal need the ability to send out their best players at full fitness when they need a result. The good news is that their best players at full fitness can beat anyone. The bad news is that it has been difficult to achieve full fitness in quite some time. Jack Wilshere can help.

At number two, another nice, added team effect.
