What happened. Arsenal are reportedly planning a January move for Julian Alvarez after Mikel Arteta was left unhappy with his summer transfer business.

• Arteta didn't get his preferred targets in the summer window.
• Arsenal signed five players for £200m but lacked a world-class forward.
• Departures of Martinelli and Trossard weakened the attack.

Arsenal may revisit the market in January to address their forward line.
