Happy New Year to all Big Match Centre readers and many thanks to you for coming back! Well, as another decade passes and we head into the New Year, the January Sales gossip begins its yearly ritual. Who will your club buy or recruit on-loan during the half-season? Here's our guide to who we think might spend and on whom:
Arsenal
Many pundits thought the loss of Van Persie would deal a crucial blow to Arsenal's hopes but the Gunners have played some scintillating football and scored some wonderful goals in the process. Still light upfront, it is likely that Wenger will spend money on a big striker with Marouanne Chamakh the more likely target. Other possibilites (but less likely) are Klass-Jan Huntelaar and Andre-Pierre Gignac, the Toulouse striker.
