Wenger promises active summer transfer ; Gunners gunning for Benzema?

[Dash]

Wenger said: "Viewed from the outside, it doesn't seem impossible today. He's a player that I like.

 

"I think he's intelligent in his movement, I think he is capable of combining well and making a difference, and of doing individual moves as well. So, for me he's a player who's at the top level in the world."

 

Wenger has insisted he will be active in the transfer window this summer but has already warned he will shy away from "£50m signings" and Arsenal would have to shatter their transfer record and pay around £20m for Benzema.

 

The bold part pretty much says it all about how Wenger has handled the transfer window for the past year. He only seems to care about signing young players that he can groom for the next few years except Arsenal is in need of veteran help. That said, I would love to get Benzema because Arsenal has done an incredible job of creating chances this year (most shots in the league) but they can never finish. Benzema fits the bill but prying him away from Real Madrid isn't going to be easy.
