Arsenal boss Wenger: I am confident landing my transfer targets

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has assured fans he will make the signings he feels are needed by his squad before this month's transfer deadline. Wenger is yet to make a senior signing this summer.

He said: "I am confident. You look at many teams around us. Nothing has happened until now. This team with financial potential as well.

"At the moment the market hasn't moved a lot. Apart from Man City, nobody has done anything."

Despite the clamour for him to raid the Emirates Stadium war chest, said to be the best part of £100m, Wenger remains "pretty relaxed" about the whole situation.

"I always try to make the decision I feel is right for the club," he said.

"That doesn't mean I always manage to do it, but I work with that conscience.

"If you say we are under pressure to spend money then yes we are, but I feel more under pressure to spend the money in the right way. That is what I will try to do."
