We are ready with the new Friday Five where we take a look back on five things we find worth remembering each week.

Manchester City battled last year's FA Cup final defeat after trailing by one at the break, winning 3-1 in the Capital One Cup. A well organised Sunderland side was brought in front by Fabio Borini, and Manchester City were deservedly trailing behind at the break. However, Pellegrini must have spoken with big words in the break as Yaya Toure and Samir Nasri put City in front with two goals less than a minute apart, before Jesus Navas ended the match with a goal in the 90th minute. Manchester City takes the first trophy of the season still being in play for the Premier League win. It is worth mentioning that none of the 14 Manchester City players in the final were English.

When it emerged Tuesday that Arsenal had, in fact, triggered Luis Suarez release clause with their January bid, an Arsenal fan started an optimistic petition for Liverpool to hand over the Uruguayan. Arsenal made a bid of £40,000,001 in the January window, but the offer was declined as Liverpool owner John W. Henry denied any release clause. However, on Tuesday he told that there, in fact, had been a release clause but that in today's football,  such things never work anyway. This made the optimistic Arsenal fan demand Liverpool hand over Suarez to the club, apologies to Arsenal and pay a £4,5m compensation. Sign up here!

A new Schmeichel entered the scene of international football when Kasper, son of Peter Schmeichel was the best man for Denmark against England on Wednesday. The 27-year old goalkeeper stole the show from the English national team, and kept them away from the goal until the last part of the match where he was without a chance when Sturridge headed the ball in the net. The Leicester-keeper has been praised for his performance in the British papers on Thursday and with his performance on Wednesday he is putting pressure on Stephan Andersen to become the first choice for the Danish national team. A transfer to the Premier League could help him on the way.

Neymar showed that he is more than a well paid footballer when a 7-year old South African boy ran into the pitch during the match between South Africa and Brazil.

Nike revealed their new knitted boots ahead of the summers World Cup. The boot is called Magista and will, according to Nike, be a game-changer. The knitted boot will fit around your foot like a glove, and is designed to bring your foot closer to the ball for enhanced control. In fact, Nike claims that "no other boot will get your foot this close to the ball". How many England players will be wearing this boot this summer?

Arsenal's problem? It was clear when they sent on Bendtner... Wenger lacks a world-class striker to partner Giroud. This was the title of the Daily Mail's match report from the clash between Manchester United and Arsenal on Sunday.

The Daily Mail is right. Despite, Bendtner's great comeback, the Dane is still not good enough to play for Arsenal, and especially not against opponents as Manchester United. The question is who should Arsene Wenger bring in instead?

Luis Suarez was the main target during the summer, but he is out of the picture for the January window, mainly because he has made a comeback in Liverpool. However, it is also known now that the striker removed his get-out clause in 2012.

The most likely transfer would be Real Madrid's Karim Benzema, who has been linked with Arsenal for about a year. The Frenchman could be interested in a move to the Gunners as he has appeared out of sorts this season. Furthermore, Arsenal should have the money to buy him out of his contract in Madrid.

Another possibility is from a rival club; Arsenal was interested in Demba Ba before Chelsea signed him from Newcastle, and the interest is still there. However, it is unlikely Chelsea will sell to a rival, unless they are able to recoup most of the £7.5m they paid for the Senegalese. A loan deal could be an option as Arsenal would be interested in getting a player with Premier League experience.

Last but not the least Arsenal was battling with Juventus over the Spanish forward Fernando Llorente and lost. However, Llorente has not gotten the success he hoped for in the Italian club and will be eager to go on a loan deal to Arsenal to regain his place in the Spanish squad for the World Cup. Llorente could be a great signing but is much the same type striker as Giroud. That said if Arsenal comes in trouble they will have two strong strikers up front!

No matter what, Arsene Wenger needs to cash out this winter and bring in a striker otherwise they will lose in the battle for the Premier League trophy.
