Wenger quotes from Oz press conference...

[Tony C]

Wenger was asked about Lemar and Mbappe

Said Lemar is a player he likes but would not be drawn into it further, said nothing concrete yet.
Said Mbappe has the choice of any top club in europe, and that Arsenal were one of them.
On Sanchez

Asked if he still insists on not selling Alexis to a rival, "Yes, that’s the continuity from what I said. Yes, that’s what we’ll do."
On New Additions

"We play football based on movement - I believe both can integrate well into the team.
I believe they are great additions to the team. This is a good opportunity to get a first look at them."
Alexandre Lacazette will make debut on Thursday according to Wenger and will also play on Saturday

On Alexis; before, we could always say we needed the cash but now?

A football club always *needs* £50m.

Yeah, I suppose we all know how this story ends by now. But will merely swapping one fifty million pound player for another satisfy everyone this time, do you reckon?

Sanchez out, use the money to try and force Monaco's hand on Lemar who is reported as the one AW really wants. Lemar and Lacazette in, arguably strengthened from last year.

Keep Mezut obviously.

Losing him for free is just not an option.

Right. Whatever it is, so long as it doesn't appear to be penny pinching #SSFM

are you qualified to demand we get rid of our best player for Lemar?

Have you studied Lemar or have you just heard us linked with him/seen his football manager stats? Please do tell us how he matches up to Sanchez

Unless they can just dig another 50m out of the ground. :citeh:

Or their own supporters

[Mo Britain less Europe]

The wage cap is precisely why we need our super-efficient Dick to get his finger out and start offloading players who aren't needed.
