Thing is, if Wenger likes a player and wants him enough to be paying the reported 25m then the chances are that he'll be a good fit for the team. It is a little bit of blind faith in Wenger's scouting ability but under those circumstances it'll be a shame if we lose out just because United have deeper pockets.
Well, wage structure can't be broken so... Its just a shame wages is the stumbling block, otherwise it's a match made in heaven.
If the reports are to be believed, Wenger chased him last summer, this Jan and now. He obviously wants a midfielder reinforcement despite Coquelin emergence. The only fear for us is there are nobody around he thinks is "available" and "quality" after the targets are gone. Remember, Gazidis mentioned a few times Wenger only go for someone if they are made available by their club.
