I like Lopez a lot. Think he'd be a perfect link with the midfield and theo

Qwiss

I think any addition to the front 4 has to contribute goals and assists.

If we are only going to make one signing this window, in order to salvage our season and help us to 4th place, I'm not convinced this is our man.

We have half as many wins as the league leaders after half a season
This is no time for half measures
David Villa
Higuain
Balotelli (and even he's a gamble given our dire circumstances)

No more Koscielnys and Girouds. No more bargain shopping in 2nd tier French cities.

Unused sub tonight

Villa not on barca's bench

asajoseph

Villa's injured

Can you imagine if we had been in this position 8 years ago, everyone has accepted that this is our level kind of like Liverpool

Another shout is Kaka, came on as a sub yesterday. Not sure how quickly he would adapt, but I could see him linking up nicely with Cazorla.

A big name would boost the morale

Claudius

And that's what the supporters and players need, Sam.
A big name to make us smile. Go all out and bring in Kaka and David Villa on loan. Cover their wages til the end of the season while you think of a real plan. But give us something to smile about and enough quality to snag 4th.

In the summer, those two can go back or be bought outright as per the wishes of the new manager

Decent shout. Could take a look at Pato.

Corinthians won't sell pato so soon

Claudius

Pato has moved to Brazil, Mirth.
He no longer has the star power as well. Guys like David Villa and Kaka still do.

Mirth

Ah, I heard he was unhappy and looking for a move. Honestly, I don't think Madrid or Barcelona will let their players go in January. Villa and Kaka may not start regularly but they still play a role in their squad, particularly Villa who is the only other natural goalscorer in that team and half the reason Barcelona floundered last season was because they only had one striker.

2. Adrian Lopez
Having watched Lopez play for Atletico Madrid on a number of occasions, I haven't seen anything to suggest that the Spain international could be the spark Arsenal need as they battle to stay in the top four this season. The 24-year-old forward has scored just two goals in 16 appearances this campaign and has notched only 25 strikes and ten assists in 172 La Liga matches. Considering Adrian is also often deployed on the left - a position for which Arsene Wenger signed Lukas Podolski in the summer - it would be a waste of the Gunners' savings to spend on the Atletico man in January.

Kaka and Villa on loan would be something. Can't see either coming though.
