Arsene Wenger is likely to surprise every one come January – despite the big money moves predicted at Manchester City, Chelsea and possibly Liverpool. 

Only Wenger and the management at the Emirates have come out to publicly state that they have as much as 35 million pounds to work the January transfer window. 

This is only likely will raise more dust in the eyes of the Gunners fans than a Theo Walcott surging run. 

However, two ‘big’ names have emerged as early contenders. 

The Tottenham Hotspur target Leandro Diamiao has now been linked to Arsenal by British Daily Daily Star. 

However, more important is an ESPNsource that claims  Chelsea are being put off Atletico Madrid forward Radamel Falcao because of his high valuation - a £48 million price on the table. 

There is the UEFA's Financial Fair play rules which will come in to play and the Blues want to be careful about that. 

As far as FFP goes, only Arsenal sit comfortably in the clear and can easily meet the Falcao price, or Diamiao, or anyone else for that matter. 

Now, if only Wenger will spend.
