Wenger on Vertonghen:
“Great players like to be with great players, so it helps always to get them in. First, we want Robin to stay, because he is convinced we can play for the championship.
“We have bought Podolski. Vertonghen is a defender. He is an interesting player but he is a centre-back.
“We look at all the players all over Europe every week.
“Our next step is to bring Jack Wilshere and Abou Diaby back, and then, if you look at our squad, I don’t feel we are behind anybody else.”
