Three reasons why Arsenal should buy a striker in January

2. To score more goals

All in all, Olivier Giroud isn’t a bad striker. He tries hard and is also good at finding space and working openings, however his conversion rate is rather embarrassing for a supposed top club striker. Their Premier League and Champions League rivals have top talent up front, as Manchester City and Liverpool both have one of the best strikers in the world in their ranks, as City have Sergio Aguero, while Liverpool is the home of Luis Suarez. Arsenal have no player to compete with the two South Americans, and it makes the squad look worse and also gives them a huge disadvantage against other top teams.
