Arsenal hope to make a fresh start to their Premier League campaign when they entertain newcomers Swansea City this weekend armed with new signings and clear heads after a welcome international break.While free-scoring Manchester rivals United and City have blasted out of the blocks with a 100 percent record, Arsene Wenger's side have picked up just one point from their first three matches as well as several injuries and suspensions.
The departures of Cesc Fabregas and Samir Nasri compounded their problems but they have replenished their squad with a host of transfer deadline-day signings such as Mikel Arteta, Yossi Benayoun, Per Mertesacker and Andre Santos.
The near fortnight break for Euro 2012 qualifiers and international friendlies may have come at the right time for the north Londoners, who host Swansea on Saturday (1400 GMT).
