Arsenal fans in the Transfer Tavern are reacting angrily to a shock defeat against West Brom this afternoon, declaring that vast amounts of money needs to be spent in January.
The Gunners undoubtably need new faces in January to spark fresh life into their Premier League title ambitions, particularly with their woeful injury record continuing, and they believe that the Bundesliga should be a top focus for Arsenal in the New Year.
Popularity of the German league has increased tenfold in recent years, with Bundesliga being flooded with talent- and the clubs are mostly unable to pay the top money that the Premier League can, which gives Arsenal a boost.
Target the right players, and offer the right incentives, and Arsenal can catch themselves an absolute gem. With German internationals within their squad any incoming players from the Bundesliga should settle quickly, which is crucial.
Arsenal fans at the bar strongly believe this five should be right at the top of Arsene Wenger’s wish-list and are adamant any of this contingent can fire the Gunners to Premier League glory.
Hit Wenger below to see FIVE Bundesliga stars he should target in January!

Hakan Calhanoglu
The Bayer Leverkusen midfielder has been labelled by many as the next Mesut Ozil, earning a thrilling reputation for slick passes. At 21-years-old, he has plenty of years ahead of them and would be a huge addition for the Gunners.
Deadly from free-kicks in an attacking area, Calhanoglu would vastly improve Arsenal’s depth within the squad and would prove to be a massive addition for the future. In terms of value for money, there isn’t much better than Calhanoglu.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang
Arsenal fans are crying out for a deadly striker and Aubameyang fits the bill entirely. In staggering goal-scoring form this calendar year, with an astonishing goals record so far this season, the Gabon international is amongst the finest in Europe.
He would cost a staggering amount of money, likely in excess of Arsenal’s transfer record, but he guarantees goals and would add a new dimension to the team.
Leroy Sane
The Schalke winger is still just a teenager but he’s already established himself as a full German international, rated amongst the best of Germany’s up-and-coming contingent. Any side that grabs his signature is set for a huge player going forward.
For many, Arsenal would do well to add a natural right-winger to their squad. Aaron Ramsey has been utilised there, but is better in a central role, whilst Theo Walcott wants to play up-front and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain wants to play centrally.
With Sane, you’ve got a player more than happy to play out wide.
Marco Reus
The dream addition for Arsenal would be Marco Reus, an established world superstar- but he’s still capable of going up to the next level. That level may well be Real Madrid or Barcelona but Arsenal have the finances to challenge.
With Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez already within the squad, Marco Reus could be the next stellar addition and would strike fear into defences across Europe. Imagine that trio of attacking stars, sensational!
Mario Gotze
Perhaps a more realistic superstar signing is Mario Gotze, a player who hasn’t quite been capable of nailing down a regular spot at Bayern Munich. If that doesn’t change soon, then the World Cup hero could more away from Bavaria.
The Premier League would be the ideal destination for Gotze and Arsenal would fit the bill, potentially being a long-term replacement for Santi Cazorla. He can also play in a more advanced role, or out wide, so his versatility is a massive asset.
