Many observers believe the Frenchman has not invested heavily
enough in the transfer market in recent years, and his biggest buys
last summer were Eduardo da Silva (₤8.5 million) and Bacary Sagna
(₤6 million).
The Gunners have recently been linked with the likes of Valencia
striker David Villa and Werder Bremen playmaker Diego, raising
supporters' hopes of a big-name buy this time around.
But while Wenger admitted there will be a few notable additions
during the off-season, he claimed the important thing is bringing
in suitable, high-quality players rather than hyped-up
primadonnas.
"I think a huge player is better than a huge name," said Wenger.
"You have huge names who produce very little at the moment.
"There is plenty of demand from players who want to join us and
what we need next year is two or three maybe."
The former Monaco boss has been criticised for his youth policy
ever since the Gunners’ once-impressive campaign collapsed during
the second half of the season.
But when asked if he will seek to draft in experienced personnel,
Wenger replied: "We just need talent," which suggests he will
remain steadfast in his youth-oriented approach.
well, thats expected. but i kinda feel AW has his eye on
some great youngster, hopefully Nasri
