Mikel Arteta has conceded that Arsenal have not spent as much on forwards as their rivals but says that bringing in an extra body is not guaranteed to improve the squad. Arsenal have failed to score or scored only once in 13 out of their 30 matches in all competitions this season and passed up several opportunities against Newcastle in the first-leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final against Newcastle.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta believes Manchester United will be a different proposition in Sunday's FA Cup third-round clash as a result of extra training time with Ruben Amorim.

The Gunners have come under pressure to sign a striker this month during the January transfer window after losing 2-0 to Newcastle in the first leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final first leg on Tuesday night. It was the 13th time in 30 games this season that Arsenal have either failed to register a goal or only scored once.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is impressed by the impact new boss Ruben Amorim has had on Manchester United, and expects it to be a beautiful game when the two teams face off in the FA Cup third round on Sunday.

Mikel Arteta believes Ruben Amorim is taking over Manchester United in a “better place” than when he was handed the reins at Arsenal. Amorim was appointed Manchester United boss in November after the club parted ways with Erik ten Hag.

Mikel Arteta says there is a possibility that Arsenal could be active in the transfer market this month, but only if it is to bring in a player who can make an immediate impact in the first team. The Gunners are trying to hunt down Liverpool at the top of the Premier League table,

Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford is available for Sunday's FA Cup third-round tie at Arsenal after falling ill, manager Ruben Amorim said on Friday.

Arsenal have been dealt a slight curveball ahead of their clash against Manchester United. Mikel Arteta will lock horns with Ruben Amorim at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday as they both look to book a place in the FA Cup fourth round.
