You still questioning it? I've only been watching soccer truly seriously for a few seasons now but I've watch a ton of arsenal matches as I find them usually very enjoyable. It seems to me, and I could be completely wrong that arsenal lacks any semblance of true toughness when things aren't flowing perfectly for them, not to mention they seem smaller especially in midfield than the other title challengers. 38 matches is a grind and they're not going to win pretty every match. A guy like Vidal will probably give them a significant lift on a rainy midweek match against stoke or someone similar when their attack isn't flowing quite so freely. I think outside of Cech having a tougher minded midfield is the biggest boost possible to their title chances.

remember how much passion and toughness Viera brought to the team? not comparing the two players at all, just commenting on the need of toughness, especially through the "spine" of the team (keeper, CB, CM, CF, etc.)
