Wenger Signed 2 yr deal with Gunners..

The Frenchman has reportedly agreed terms on a deal with Gunners that would take him until 2016.

According to reports, the contract would see Wenger continue on the same £7.5million-a-year salary he currently earns – but there would be bonuses for winning silverware.

The move would take Wenger close to two decades in charge of Arsenal and ends speculation over his future, with PSG known to be keen on signing him.

The 63-year-old will also be in charge of an increasingly large transfer kitty over the next two years, with the club’s advertising revenue continuing to grow.

Arsenal signed an extension to their Emirates contract last year while further cash is due to arrive in the summer when a kit deal with Puma is signed.

In Wenger We Trust

Arsène Wenger on Spending Big this January

Arsène Wenger: 

"I had a huge sense of responsibility when we built the stadium to get the Club through it without going bankrupt. The first years were difficult, and also explained why we lost some players. Now we are in a more comfortable financial position, I - more than anyone - want the great players to play for Arsenal Football Club. If we have to spend the money to do that, I will spend the money."

"I want to continue to educate 60 to 80 per cent of the squad ourselves. The culture of the club, the way we want to play football and the way we want to behave, comes from within. The Wilsheres, the Ramseys, the Gibbs - these kind of players have to be the culture of the club."

"Then on top of that, we want to bring world-class players who will help us to be even stronger."

why Arsenal should sign Karim Benzema..

Reasons why Arsenal should make a move for Karim Benzema

• World class striker

Don’t go by his current form. It can happen to anyone, every player goes through bad patches. They say form is temporary, class is permanent. Benzema is world class and should walk into any team in this world.

• Must need striker

Arsenal badly need a striker this January. They simply cannot rely on Olivier Giroud to deliver the entire season and there is not enough back-up for him, should he get injured. Therefore, Benzema presents the perfect and ideal strike option for them.

• He is just 25

Yeah, he is just 25. He must not be seen as Real Madrid-reject but Arsenal must see the bigger picture here. His best playing days (about to reach the peak) are infront of him and this is the time Wenger must capitalize.

• Lone striker/French combo

Benzema can be used as a lone striker in the squad or Wenger could use him as a strike partner of his fellow countryman Olivier Giroud.

• Ozil connection

Ozil and Benzema partnership worked fairly well at Real Madrid and there’s no reason why it should not work at Arsenal again. Plus, Benzema has the perfect blue-print in front of him in the form of Ozil, who has settled in nicely and is firing all cylinders. Same can happen with him.

• Cut-price

Arsenal could actually get him on a cut-price of around £20m. That is reasonably cheap amount taking into consideration that he was valued at £40m in the summer
