After earning her first win since being appointed coach Mikel Arteta last week, Arsenal will be out at the Crystal Palace on Saturday (2:30 p.m.). The team from London wants to put behind the opening of the weak season and start accumulating points en route to the Champions League.
In a press conference ahead of the game, Arteta addressed the January transfer window: "If we find someone to help us get through the season more balanced, we'll look at the possibilities. I don't expect big things or a big signing."
The Spanish coach added: "I do expect great things from the players I have right now and those who are recovering from injuries. These are my greatest expectations of the team. We always have to look at the options available to us, because we probably have serious injuries and players that are expected to be out for a long time. What options do we have. "
Regarding rumors of interest from teams at Pier-American Obamyang, Arteta said: "My plan is to leave Oba, of course, because I know that if we leave him with us we're going to be stronger and we can win the most games. We haven't talked to him about extending a contract."
