Arsenal leaving the January window with no striker reinforcement has left plenty of supporters questioning the methods behind such a decision.
The club have allowed Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to leave on a free transfer to Barcelona meaning that Arsenal have just Alexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah available as options for the rest of the season. Should one get injured and the chances of the top four will take a major hit, especially if a problem befalls the Frenchman.
Yet manager Mikel Arteta has seen his former mentor sign a young striking talent that should give him a regretful view of what could have been for the Gunners this winter had they opened their eyes to broader options.
