Dalglish defends market work of Arsenal boss Wenger

Liverpool legend Kenny Dalglish has defended the market work of Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger.

King Kenny wrote in his column for the Mirror: "They're not far away as a team - Alexis Sanchez brings a lot and Danny Welbeck offers a threat.

"Last year, Mikel Arteta did well in providing that link to the forwards, but he's not that defensive midfielder they need.

"I wouldn't criticise Wenger, he knows what is required.

"Those players, the top-class defensive midfielder or solid, out-and-out centre-half are hard to come by."
