Be fair teecee.....at least he has changed his words from last summer's "you can't sell your best two players and be called a big club"
Can't understand the excitement re Vertonghan, whenever I have seen him has looked average, not the worst player but not worth getting excited about. We clearly need to strengthen defensively but not taken with him.
Also questioning the M'Vila deal after his recent off field troubles, Wenger assesses personalities before he signs them so can't see him spending £17m+ on him now.
Still dreaming about Hazard but thats all that will be, Podolski, Hazard and RVP would be incredible front three, I'd even take Cisse from the barcodes for less as that would also make a potential title winning front three.
Maybe now he's down in the dumps the twitch will go on a spending spree to cheer himself up, as can#t see us shifting our dregs any other way soon. We could bid for anyone with them off the wage bill.
