Wenger confident Arteta will click

ARSENE WENGER is confident new signing Mikel Arteta can have an instant impact when Arsenal look to kick-start their Barclays Premier League campaign against Swansea at the Emirates Stadium today.

The 29-year-old Spaniard, understood to have accepted a pay cut to force through his £10m deadline-day switch from Everton, is in line to make his Gunners debut along with Germany defender Per Mertesacker.

Fellow recent arrivals Yossi Benayoun, on a season loan from Chelsea, Brazil full-back Andre Santos and South Korea captain Park Chu-young, provided his visa clearance comes through, could all feature in the squad.
