Did win at Brentford suggest Arsenal need January signings?

LONDON -- At some point this month, Arsenal will have to make the same judgement call they did in the summer: do we have enough in attack to win the Premier League?

Wednesday's 3-1 win at Brentford on New Year's Day was inconclusive. Manager Mikel Arteta has said the search for solutions without Bukayo Saka -- sidelined until March following hamstring surgery -- would begin internally and he sprang something of a surprise here by handing teenager Ethan Nwaneri his first league start in Saka's usual right-sided position.
