Arsene Wenger is expecting a busy time before the transfer window slams shut, having seen his Arsenal side deliver a crucial Champions League win.
A 3-0 triumph away to Fenerbahce put the Gunners on course for a place in the group stage of the Champions League, with the second leg of their play-off round tie back at the Emirates Stadium next Tuesday.
Arsenal are29.00to go on and win the Champions League for the first time in their history, with Manchester United13.00and Manchester City13.00.
However, Wenger is also focusing on transfer matters, as he bids to strengthen his squad right up until 2nd January.
"Quality-wise we do not need (to buy), but numbers-wise we are short," Wenger admitted.
"The transfer market really starts now, a lot of activity will happen between now and 2nd January. We have 12 days. A lot will happen. It starts now.
"It is like a poker game. People hold their cards as long as possible and see what is happening out there. In the end, they go for decisions."
Real Madrid duo Karim Benzema and Angel Di Maria have both been mentioned as potential targets, with Wenger admitting that his interest in Liverpool ace Luis Suarez is over.
However, a central defender is also a high priority after Laurent Koscielny suffered a nasty head injury during the win in Turkey.
