Wenger wants new defender

On signing a new defender, Wenger said:

[The advantage we have over our opponents?] The way we play, the style of play, a stable squad and we have a huge hunger. We feel that last year we were very, very close and we want, of course, this time to come back and be even stronger.

I believe that we have a good offensive power as well, we work very hard to focus now on the defensive stability. If we manage to sort this problem out I believe we can be a very good surprise.

[A new defender before the season starts?] Yes, certainly, we will have to find one more defender. We work on it, that’s all I can promise, we work very hard on it but in fairness, everybody looks for players, everybody looks for the same area and you see that nobody turns up with magic. It’s all about being steady, work very hard on it and keep calm.

[Phil Jagielka?] I do not want to comment individually because I do not want to destabilise clubs. I do not want to do to other clubs what some clubs do to us so I will not comment on individual players.
