Apart from the fans, Arsenal coach, Unai Emery also acknowledged the poor quality of the Gunners in their 0-1 loss to West Ham at the weekend.

According to givemesport.com, Iwobi has never been very popular amongst Arsenal fans, but being told he’s worse than Nasri can be classed a new low.
What Arsenal need is a new centre-back and a new winger and that’s exactly what Emery wants to bring in this month.
“I think the club is working to take some players who can help us during these next four months,” said the Spaniard in a recent press conference.

“Maybe the transfer market can help us with a centre-back, but it is not easy because [Konstantinos] Mavropanos is coming back from injury. Also a winger, right or left. One player can help us in this position,” Emery admitted.
