After a tough first half of the Premiership season, Arsenal chairman Peter Hill-Wood has stated that there is fund available for Arsene Wenger to spend in the transfer window. Its well documented that the best players are bought pre-season and that buying players in January rarely changes a team's performance but the pressure will be on to strengthen the Gunners defence and defensive midfield where Arsenal have looked vulnerable. Arsenal are currently fifth behind Aston Villa and have lost 5 league matches already. There has been friction with the captaincy of William Gallas and have lacked the finshing of Adebayor, who should play today at Stamford Bridge in the 4pm match against Chelsea.
"There have been suggestions we keep stopping him from buying - that is not the case.
"He's very sensible with the way he approaches the transfer market, he's not going to buy anybody just because the press or fans say he should.
"He's only going to buy somebody if he thinks they're going to improve what is a young squad but a very talented one."
