Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has teased fans by admitting he came close to signing a player during January.

Wenger confirmed he was working hard throughout Monday to bring in a new player before the deadline expired.

“We did [try to sign someone], yes,” he told arsenal.com. “I do not like to lie and I do not like to put any player in a difficult position at the club where he is at the moment, so I’ll say nothing about it."

When asked if it was a striker he replied: “I leave you the freedom to guess.”

It is always the same nonsense. They have needed the same type of players they dont have for the last 5 or so years. Fabregas leaves next year and it is 5 years wasted .........over nonsense .. back to developing again .. get some experience... the team is too small and too nice all over the field .. Vermalen has been phenomenal but he is luxury when it comes to what arsenal needs
you need at least a big striker , a big defender and and nasty midfielder ... and you need players in englad with prior prem experience

always close to signing someone just never does
