The feel-good factor around Arsenal has returned after their North London Derby triumph over Tottenham and that will certainly increase if the Gunners make some big moves in the second half of the January transfer window.

Though the focus should be further up the pitch, a deal for Real Sociedad midfielder Martin Zubimendi has been all but wrapped up. Acquiring one of their four striker targets this month appears unlikely but there are certainly some positives to take.
Alexander Isak and Benjamin Sesko are both fresh off scoring again for Newcastle and RB Leipzig, respectively, while the battle for Viktor Gyokeres’ signature could have taken a twist with Manchester United and Ruben Amorim believed to be looking at some alternatives.
