Wenger preaches patience over splashing cash

Arsene Wenger has hinted yet again that Arsenal will be keeping their cheque book under lock and key during the January transfer window.

 The Gunners are no closer to resolving the contract saga of Theo Walcott, while the manager is hopeful of tying Bacary Sagna to a new deal.

But the possibility of new faces coming through the door at the Emirates Stadium next month appears slim as Wenger maintains just simply buying a few new players is not the answer.

“Football is not only to splash money out and work, it’s also about patience and the pride to create your own players,” he said.

“There are some important aspects in the game we never get credit for, but I find them very important.

“For example, in the last 10 years, we have brought more players out than any other club together at Champions League level. You can look all across Europe.

“That is part of our pride as well - to give a chance to players to show their talent at that level.”
