Where Exactly Does Mikel Arteta Fit In At Arsenal?

Arsenal are a side currently flooded with midfield ability. While Mathieu Flamini, Jack Wilshere, Aaron Ramsey and Tomas Rosicky can all play in the middle, Mesut Ozil, Theo Walcott, Lukas Podolski and Santi Cazorla are the ones doing most of the creating. However, there is one man who I feel a bit sorry for, and that's Mikel Arteta, who was incredible last season.

According to ITV, Tottenham boss Tim Sherwood is ready to allow some of his fringe players to leave the club this month, as long as they are not in his plans. The former player inherited a side crammed with talent but with only a certain amount of players needed, some were always going to miss out. But who should he be looking to offload?

Tottenham Could Offload Winger And Swoop For Midfielder - Here's Why The Reshuffle Is A Positive Move

Not only has this season been one of transition for Tottenham, but it's also been a tough one to watch on many occasions for the Spurs fans. The sacking of Andre Villas-Boas, the derby losses and the limp attacking unit that were on show are just a few lows of the campaign so far. There is plenty to be cheerful of though, with the club in the knockout stages of the Europa League, strikers who are starting to score and a league position just two points outside the top four.

Arsenal Target Set For New Deal - Here's Why It's Such A Blow For The Gunners

The talk around the red half of north London this month has been about the striker's berth at Arsenal and how Arsene Wenger may need to strengthen that before the window closes. With Theo Walcott and Nicklas Bendtner currently injured it leaves just Olivier Giroud as the only real option up top for the Gunners, unless the boss opts to stick Lukas Podolski or Serge Gnabry up there.

Has Ozil Been Arsenal's Worst Midfielder Of Late? Former Gunner Say Yes, I Say No

When Arsene Wenger signed Mesut Ozil in the summer he would've expected the high level of performances that we have seen from him so far. The Germany international has made a staggering 48 key passes so far in his 16 Premier League games, claiming seven assists, and has also scored four league goals. In the Champions League he has made another 16 in six games and scored once, so it would be seem outrageous that someone would suggest he has been Arsenal's worst midfielder recently, wouldn't it?

Arsenal: Look To Sign Bundesliga Striker With 13 Goals This Season And Offload Bendtner In The Summer

There are a few players around Europe's top leagues who are considered to be, quite frankly, a bit of a joke. You will probably have a few spring to mind right now. One that sticks out in the Premier League is Nicklas Bendtner, who over the last couple of years has been the butt of many puns. However, the last few weeks, before he was injured, he started to look like a potential back up plan to Olivier Giroud, scoring twice in a handful of games.

Brace yourselves, for it's that time of year again. We are currently in the middle of the January transfer window and rumours are rife. We haven't seen a great deal of action yet but the speculation is picking up, and one man who has been linked to a move to Arsenal is Roma's 22-year-old forward Mattia Destro.

West Ham Could Make Move For Chelsea Midfielder, But Could He Save Them From The Drop?

A couple of years back, if you had suggested that Michael Essien would be a target for West Ham then I would have laughed at you. Now though it looks as though there is a real of it coming off, as the Ghana international looks for first team football and the Hammers fight for their Premier League lives. In an exclusive report by Sports Direct News, it says that Sam Allardyce may look to swoop should  Mohamed Diame leave Upton Park, but what could he offer.

Why Arsenal May Struggle To Win The Premier League Without Walcott

Some may point to karma, but when Theo Walcott gave a cheeky gesture towards the away end at Tottenham this weekend as he was stretchered off, the forward couldn't have anticipated that he would be ruled out for the rest of the season and miss the World Cup. The news must have been devastating for Walcott, but I am sure there are plenty of Arsenal fans who share his pain as I can't be alone in thinking that his absence could cause Arsenal to blow their title challenge.

Why Tottenham Signing Lescott Could Be The Perfect Move

After nearly 500 games in club football, over half of which have been in the Premier League, Joleon Lescott has established himself as one of the top English centre-backs in the country. Now, though, he finds himself in the background at Manchester City and having his name thrown about by the press in regards to a move away from the Etihad. One of the clubs mentioned is Tottenham, in the Mirror anyway, and I think that it could be a match made in heaven.

After reading this news, I went straight down to my local bookmakers and lumped a large amount of money on Arsenal winning the league. Reports from the Metro report that the north London club are ready to splash out on striker Diego Costa, who has scored 19 La Liga goals in 18 games. Here's why I am so excited about the signing, despite the Atletico Madrid forward supposedly commanding a fee of up to £32m.

Why Chelsea Should Move For Centre-Back With 91% Tackles Success

Think of the Chelsea backline and your mind will instantly flicker to John Terry who is the heart of the club. Alongside the stalwart this season has been Gary Cahill, who has been brilliant for the majority of it, and David Luiz who has played a bit-part cameo under Jose Mourinho. For me, though, there is one man who is the future of the Stamford Bridge outfit's backline, and that's Kurt Zouma.
