Not someone Wenger would have signed permanently apparently – but someone who is now one of his players and who has actually gotten off to a pretty decent start at the club.
Welbeck needs a manager who believes in him and will play him week in week out – and even if that means starting on the wing, he will give it his all.
There are rumours surrounding Karim Benzema and Edinson Cavani but Wenger tends to bottle out of big buys – meaning Welbeck may well be all the Gunners have – until Olivier Giroud returns to fitness that is.
