Nottingham Forest Vs Arsenal: Gunners Held To A 0-0 Draw

A goalless draw with Forest highlighted Arsenal's problems amid an injury crisis in attack, with the Londoners failing to score for the third time in four games. A lack of spending in the January transfer window is proving to be a costly mistake for Arsenal. How Arteta could do with some fresh attacking options right now with his team looking desperately blunt in front of goal. Injuries to Kai Havertz, Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Jesus and Gabriel Martinelli have undermined Arsenal's title challenge, while on-loan Raheem Sterling has scored just once in 21 appearances this term.
