Cheikh M’Bengue

24yr old, Senegalese left back.

“I did not expect it at all. When a big club like that think of you, it’s nice, but we are surprised more than anything else.

“Of course, the Premier League is a league where I want to evolve.

“I still have two years on my contract and I’m a key player here. I have no clause or agreement to leave – but Arsenal is something you cannot turn down if everyone is okay.

“I hope he [club owner Olivier Sadran] won’t block me if an interesting proposal comes up. Arsenal would be awesome.”

I don't much about him outside of that he's decent on footy manager
I'm a little skeptical that he's just raising his profile for a move elsewhere, funny saying he's only got two years on his deal and that he's interested in a move, never heard a genuine Arsenal target come out and say there's interest that we've actually signed.

Have we typed M' into football manager or something?!

M'Vila
M'Baye Niang
M'Bengue.

And that's how you know that Ol'Arry isn't your team's manager.

M'Bengue sounds cooler than M'Vila or M'Baye, or Mbiwa, for that matter

that's all i can contribute to this, we need a Ligue 1 expert.. again.

Left back? dont we have more pressing matters than getting a LB? Unless Arsène is turning Santos into a full-on Winger.

Cheikh M'Bengue (born 23 July 1988) is a French-born Senegalese international footballer who plays professionally for French club Toulouse in Ligue 1, as a left back.

it looks like the player is angling for something to happen.

Surely there must be an older guy who can play both full back spots, Angel Rangel can play RB/LB I heard, he's 28, would prefer someone like that - Send Jenks on loan.

So maybe he is the defender that wenger want to add, because wenger said today he want to add a defender. and we need good right back backup.

I think Wenger said 1 midfielder and 1 defender because he was very close to getting 1 midfielder and 1 defender. i.e Sahin and either Rangel or this guy.

Rangel makes more sense to me .. Looks a pretty good player who will do a job. Surely better than Jenkinson

He's a left back isn't he, not a RB?
