Mikel Arteta must get inventive with Arsenal's striker choice in the face of major injury concern

The Gunners have come out of the January transfer window weaker in the attack than when the market first opened, which has left Mikel Arteta’s side qualifying for a Champions League place in doubt.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang departed for Barcelona, while Folarin Balogun joined Middlesbrough on a loan deal until the end of the season.
