Wenger upset Arsenal missed out on Chelsea star Hazard

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger admits he's upset missing out on Chelsea star Eden Hazard. The Belgian superstar joined Chelsea for £32million this summer.

Wenger said: "Hazard we would have considered, yes. We were a long time on the case but there was such competition for him - Manchester City, Chelsea - and they fly a bit higher in the sky.

"I tried to sign him. Two years ago, we were in touch with Lille but they never wanted to sell then.

"He is a guy who has something special, as you have seen already."
