With the resources at their com- mand the champions must be con- sidered to hold a bright chance of securing their objective.

CHANGE OF METHOD?

True to their policy, Arsenal have signed few players during the clone season. Should the need become apparent, I have no doubt they will strive to obtain the best players in the land. I abr certain there will be one of two notable ghbury before the
