David Seaman urges Arsenal manager Unai Emery to make three key signings
David Seaman believes Arsenals new manager Unai Emery needs to sign at least three players this summer ahead of the 2018-19 campaign.
In Arsene Wengers final season in charge at the Emirates, the Gunners finished sixth and were knocked out of the Europa League at the semi-final stage.
Stephan Lichtsteiner, the Switzerland international, became Emerys first signing last week when he made the switch from Italian outfit Juventus.

An experienced right-back with seven Serie A titles, Lichtsteiner should be a dependable player for the Gunners, but Seaman believes they still need another two defensive players through the door.
And the legendary England goalkeeper also wants to see Emery sign a dominant midfielder player ahead of a season in which he hopes Arsenal can break back into the top four.

Asked what Emerys aim should be for next season, he told ESPN: For me it would be top four.
Youve got to progress on the season before and we were out of the top four and we were getting left behind by quite a few of the big clubs.
We need to regroup, have a little restructure of the team and then push on, get into the Champions League again and try and improve on that each season.
Its not going to be easy because the big guns are quite a way ahead at the moment.
We need steel in the team, we need a couple of defenders, dominant defenders and a dominant midfield player.
I think the forward side of it, you can leave that alone because weve got a lot of firepower there.
Im just a little bit worried about the defence and the art of defending.
