Arsene Wenger has raised hope amongst Arsenal fans by admitting he could dip his toe in the January transfer market.
Arsenal are in danger of being cut adrift from the top three in the title race, having lost five league games already this term, and face a crunch meeting with Liverpool at the weekend.
Wenger had suggested in recent weeks that he was unlikely to raid the market in January, but his stance appears to have shifted somewhat.
“I cannot say something will happen, but you never know,” the Frenchman told Arsenal TV Online. “It is feasible that we can do it and sometimes a [new] player can give some extra belief to the squad.
“If it appears we can make something special, then we will do it - but at the moment I can sincerely say we have not seen anything special that can really convince us we will be much stronger.”
Wenger is aware of the pitfalls of making signings in January.
He added: “We have gone with a policy we respect and the solution is not always when you do not get the result you want to just go out and buy. That can destroy what you have built up until now.
“We do not reject it, but we cannot also say that for certain it will be done. We have a young team with the club in good shape, a healthy financial position, which suddenly is quite important.”
