Mikel Arteta makes decision on 'next Yaya Toure' as Arsenal transfer plans take shape

Arsenal have made a storming start to the new Premier League campaign, but that hasn't prevented Mikel Arteta from sketching out some tentative January transfer plans.

The Gunners are the early pacesetters in the top-flight and are currently just ahead of reigning champions Manchester City at the summit of the Premier League after chalking up 21 points from a possible 24 so far this term.

Arsenal's stellar form has sparked hope that the Londoners could finally be equipped to challenge for the title again off the back of some impressive recruitment work in the summer. But Arteta is not resting on his laurels and is already making plans to bolster his squad again in the New Year.
