Arsenal have cruised to the top of the Premier League table after a brilliant start to the season, but January investment may be required to strengthen their title bid
Emirates chiefs have been instructed to significantly strengthen Mikel Arteta’s squad in the January transfer window despite Arsenal’s barnstorming start to the season.
The Gunners are sitting pretty at the Premier League summit, two points clear of defending-champions Manchester City, after winning 11 of their opening 13 games. They can guarantee they will be top of the table at Christmas by defeating Wolves on Saturday night, after Arteta finally acknowledged his side are in the title race.
Despite the north Londoners’ brilliant start, there is growing clamour for the Arsenal hierarchy to invest in January in order to boost their hopes of being crowned champions in May. Highbury hero Ray Parlour would like to see another midfielder and a back-up striker added, while Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand believes Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha would be a great option to add depth on the flanks.
“He’d be good at Arsenal, I think,” Ferdinand told his FIVE podcast of Zaha. “At Arsenal, he’d be a good challenge to the two [Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli] that are there and a good option. They should have bought him when they bought [Nicolas] Pepe!”
