Wenger reveals his transfer plans for this summer

Wenger contends his squad does not need major surgery after reaching the Quarter-Finals in Europe and taking their title bid into April despite a raft of injuries. However he concedes that a couple of major contributors are needed.


"At the moment, I don't know [how many we need]," he said at Friday's press conference.


"If you look at the numbers we had Rosicky, Van Persie, Eduardo all out for a period when one of them could have produced a goal for us.


"Van Persie did play at Liverpool but that was a Van Persie of 60 or 70 per cent. He was out for five months and he is just coming back a little bit now. Even Diaby was out for a big part of the season.


"So if you ask me how many players I want to buy, it is not a question of quality, it is a question of one or two quality, real quality, players."
