Arsenal: Has Arteta found a winning formula for Gunners?<\/h3>\n

Arsenal need to sign a creative player like Isco this month because they cannot rely on Emile Smith Rowe for the rest of the season, according to Gunners fan and ex-Tottenham striker Darren Bent. Real Madrid star Isco is one of a host of attacking midfielders linked with a move to the Emirates. Arsenal have scored just 16 goals in as many Premier League games so far this season, so are in need of extra creativity.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Isco has started just three La Liga matches so far this term but it remains to be seen if Real would be willing to let him leave this month.<\/p>\n

Reports claim Arsenal are exploring a six-month loan deal for the Spain international.<\/p>\n

Gunners academy graduate Smith Rowe has impressed in the No 10 role in the two wins against Chelsea and Burnley in the last week.<\/p>\n

But Bent believes it would be unfair to expect the 20-year-old to play every week and backs Mikel Arteta to sign a player like Isco to balance out the workload.<\/p>\n

“I think bringing in a player like Isco with his quality I think would be a good signing,” Bent said on talkSPORT.<\/p>\n

“I know things are going well at the minute but you need cover.<\/p>\n

“Smith Rowe’s been very good the last couple of games but he’s only young.<\/p>\n

“We know Smith Rowe’s stepped up but we cannot all of a sudden depend on him for the rest of the season.<\/p>\n

“He’s young, he’s only played a couple of games, but someone like Isco might raise the dressing room, the quality, the front players will quite enjoy playing with a player like him, his creative nature.<\/span><\/p>\n

“We need that type of player, [Mesut] Ozil doesn’t look like he’s going to come back.<\/p>\n

“I would have had him back in January but if you’re not and you can get him out the door, then maybe do that and bring Isco in.<\/p>\n

“You can never have enough good players in a football club and Arsenal need certainly some more of them, so Isco would be a superb signing I think.”<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Arsenal announced the departure of Sead Kolasinac on Thursday, with the left-back to rejoin Schalke on loan.<\/span><\/p>\n

Speaking at his press conference earlier in the day, Arteta said he would be looking to trim his squad this month.<\/p>\n

“Well, we have a large squad, we knew that and a lot of things we wanted to do in the summer, we couldn’t accomplish for different reasons,” Arteta said.<\/p>\n

“There are some players that are going to go on loan, they are going to leave, and that’s the priority at the moment.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

“We cannot sustain the numbers that we have in terms of substitutions.<\/p>\n

“We are looking to do that and then we will see if we have the right opportunities in the positions that we need some more help.<\/p>\n

“We are working with the club to find that.”<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
