Lionel Messi | Wenger: Its true, its just that he [Messi] didnt want to move. In the end, he was comfortable at Barcelona.” Cristiano Ronaldo | Wenger: My biggest regret? I was so close to signing Cristiano Ronaldo...that of course still hurts today. Zlatan Ibrahimovic | Wenger: He was 16. I asked him to have a little training session with the first team and he didnt want to do it. Eden Hazard | Wenger: Yes, I wanted to take him...the barrier was financial and Chelsea made an effort that I couldnt make. Gareth Bale | Wenger: We didnt take him as we had Ashley Cole and Gael Clichy...I must confess it was a huge mistake as he can play in midfield. Paul Pogba | Wenger: We were interested in him. We tried to get him to come here. But he very quickly signed for Juventus. Diego Costa | Wenger: “Yes [I wanted Costa], but that was a deal that was struck early.” Luis Suarez | Wenger: “Did he want to join us? I do not want to dwell any more on that situation - it was one of the transfers that did not work. Juan Mata | Wenger: “Mata is a similar type to Cazorla. I don’t exactly remember how it worked chronologically but we were interested in Mata.” Yaya Toure | Wenger: “It would be up at the top [of my regrets]. But lets not forget that Yaya Toure had an agreement with us...he went to Ukraine. Gerard Pique | Wenger: “We wanted to take Fabregas, Messi and Pique. It worked only for Fabregas. Didier Drogba | Wenger: I missed him when he played at Le Mans...I knew there was a good player there and I missed him. Cesc Fabregas | Wenger: Certainly, yes [Fabregas wanted to return]. But when he left we bought Mesut Ozil. # Arsene_Knows
