A fortnight has now passed since Arsenal’s January transfer window slammed shut without a significant arrival.
The Gunners failed to secure moves for any of their preferred targets before the window closed, with players such as Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Pablo Mari and others waving goodbye to the Emirates Stadium the only business conducted.
It was not for a lack of trying though, with Edu and Mikel Arteta keen to welcome a number of new faces to the club.
