The Gunners have worked hard to bring in defender Riccardo Calafiori and are close to a deal for midfielder Mikel Merino. 

But on his frontline, when speaking to talkSPORT after a 2-0 win over Wolves, Arteta said: "I have faith in (Havertz), we have faith in (Gabriel Jesus). 

"Leandro Trossard has played in that position. 

"So we have different qualities in there and the best thing we can do is trust the players that we have and try improve them. 

"They are so good and so willing and that's what we focus on."
