Do we need another attacking Mf in Jan?

I'd rather we get a winger myself. My feeling is we're in for a Reyes/Arshavin type surprise.

On a more serious note, if the rumours of Isco wanted to leave to ensure his spot for the Euro, then we could try to get him on loan.
He would definitely get playing time with us, probably more than in any other big club.

I think if Ozil get's injured we will just change formation for a couple of games. 4-4-2 or 4-4-1-1.

We would play Sanchez and Ox/Campbell on the wings with Giroud and Theo as the front 2. Ramsey with one of Elneny/Chambers/Flamini in the midfield.

It's not worth buying a CAM unless it is someone like Nolito who can also play out wide because unless Ozil gets injured they won't get any play time in that position.

Bring back Cesc
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Chelsea wouldnt sell him to Arsenal.

If he would be available I would take him for sure.

And yes I do think we need another midfielder apart from Elneny who is almost done. It is a minimum bring in 2 players in this transfer window to compete no matter who comes back from injury.

We definitely need more that one body (Elneny?) and an AM or winger will do just fine.
In essence, the transfer business for the summer should start in January as Rosicky, Arteta and Flamini will be out of contract in the summer.

A DM we need.

I think Elneny is meant to be that DM

Elneny will hopefully replace coq

I hope wenger doesn't put him on the wing

Sanchez will come back soon (I hope) and Gnabry may be coming back from loan. I would prefer to spend money on a DM/holding player and a CF. Although if we get an attacking mf it will release Walcott for the CF role.

Rosicky back up to Ozil soon

Santi as well when he returns

Rosicky will be back and fit before the end of January, when a player would be most likely to sign.

Yes he's no Isco, but Rosicky has put in some truly respectable shifts in the second half of seasons gone by.
