Have Your Say: Which defender should Arsenal sign in January?

Six is six now for Arsenal under Unai Emery.

The Gunners win last night over Brentford meant they have now won all of their last half dozen games in all completions.


Alexandre Lacazette is finally looking like the man Arsenal shed out £45 million for in 2017. Mesut Ozil has added work-rate to his undoubted ability – Emery has drilled work-rate into the talented German. Youngster Mateo Guendouzi looks one for the future, whilst summer signing Lucas Torreira is promising to be the tenacious midfielder the club have craved for more than a decade.
