Anything else is a bonus. Well done, Unai. :cloud9:
You think this defence has improved?
No specific knowledge but the Fernando Calero deal makes sense on many levels - young, good value for money, ball-playing centre back. I would expect a winger/forward of some sort as well but have no idea who. Won't be a big nameQuote:

We’re sadly now blighted by injuries and are still short of a CH and LB but it’s been moving in the right direction of late.
It's still early doors for young Unai, of course, but this need for improvement had become a feature of Wenger's team, rather than a bug. At least now something can be done about it.Quote:

And a merry f*cking Christmas to you as well, JT. :-(Quote:
