I find myself saying the word 'Surely?' over and over again with every update on the situation surrounding Arsenal in this January transfer window.
Surely Arsenal will sign a striker with Champions League up for grabs? Surely we won't let Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang leave without a replacement coming in? Surely the club knows an injury to Alexandre Lacazette would leave Eddie Nketiah as the only orthodox option for the rest of the season? Surely, right?
With just over a day left and one of the best opportunities for Arsenal to reach the Champions League and top four places, the Gunners have brought in exactly zero players to the first-team squad. Despite the entire month not seeing a single win and just one goal scored, the urgency to the club’s pursuit of its targets has remained sombre.
