Arsenal director Josh Kroenke says the Gunners will be proactive in January

Arsenal weren't expected to have even a decent transfer window. However, they were the ones who were left gleaming as the Premier League window shut earlier this month after having pulled off some of the biggest bargains of the summer.

Arsenal director Josh Kroenke believes that the club has still got the 'aura' to attract top players from across the world and that the transfer window they had is a testament to that fact. Kroenke insists that Arsenal will not hold back in the January transfer window either.

He said,

"I would say that if you're reacting and doing club-record signings based on public opinion, you're not going to go very far as a club."

"We weren't reactive this summer, we were actually proactive. As for January, I don't want to get ahead of ourselves.

"We've got to evaluate some things in the short term and figure out where we might need to address going forward, so when January does roll around we're going to be proactive again."
