'They can win the league here - when are they going to be in this position again?': Gary Neville urges Arsenal to sign two players this month to give Mikel Arteta 'another plan off the bench' after Newcastle stalemate

Gary Neville insists Arsenal have a golden opportunity to win the Premier League for the first time in 19 years – but the club must back Mikel Arteta this month if they are to do so.

The Gunners were held to a goalless draw by Champions League-chasing Newcastle on Tuesday night, which saw Arteta make just one substitution – bringing Takehiro Tomiyasu on for Ben White – in a game that saw his side manage just four shots on goal.

With no marquee names to call upon off the bench, Neville claimed the league leaders had 'run out of ideas' and that Arteta had no real firepower amongst his substitutes to change the game at the Emirates.
