Report suggest that Everton have agreed a fee for Defender Ashley Williams and are set to sign the defender for £12m from Swansea. Wenger needs a defender even before injuries to Metersacker and Paulista. I don't know why he let such a cheap buy go for nothing.




Williams is the club's captain (Swansea City) and has made over 200 or close to appearances for Swansea and he also has european experience (Europa League) and Euro championship (semi final), but yet he still doesn't attract Wenger as a top quality defender.




Wenger na wa oooooo........!!!


It is not about the fee (£12m), considering the fact that this same wenger paid £16m for Callum Chambers who has 'not really' proved anything before his move.







Arsenal's usual target will be top four again!
