Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has backed his former club to dip into the winter transfer market and strengthen its ranks this January.
Writing in his Sun column, Henry picked out the Gunners' current injury crisis in central midfield as a particular area in which they might look to reinforce:
It’s a good job Mathieu Flamini didn’t leave last summer, as looked likely. They would have a real problem in central midfield now without him.
I would expect Arsene Wenger to buy a specialist in that position in January.
