Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger admits they need to sell before buying.

Wenger spoke after defeat to Stoke City.

He said, "I expect to sell players first. That's all. I expect some players to go because we have too many players and it's not manageable. Many clubs are in this situation which is why the transfer market is quiet. We have 33 players at the moment, and that's too many players.

"I am not in transfer mode after a game like that. We are more disappointed at the moment rather than thinking about buying players straight away tonight."
