The Gunners look set to lose Robin van Persie
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has insisted he will not change his transfer policy and maintained his commitment to the Gunners.
The Gunners seem set to lose star man Robin van Persie after he announced that he would not sign the contract.
Johan Cruyff admitted that he thought a side could win the Champions League without spending money and the Frenchman agrees with his sentiments.
“I totally agree with Cruyff and I won’t change,” Wenger revealed. “The only sad thing is that sometimes your work is destroyed by others.
“You want to see a player in his prime doing it for your club. But it does not work like that all the time. “
“I am a victim of that.
“I lost Samir Nasri, Gael Clichy and Cesc Fabregas at an age where they should have been playing their best football for Arsenal.
“But I never left the club when I could have.
“I could have left 10 times to join another club but I didn’t because I have worked with the same vision and philosophy at Arsenal for the last 16 years ? and that won’t change.”
Yaya Sanogo says a meeting with Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger was enough to persuade him to snub a move to Lille and join the Gunners instead.
