Hildbrand leaves Stuttgart

[Gazza Martinez]

I think Pat42 is right in saying Wenger likes height and strength in his goalkeepers, which can be the only realistic reason why he isn't going all out to sign Hildebrand. Abbiati is probably more Wenger's style of gk, and I think he'll come in the summer.

Not really. It´s a matter of preference, nothing more.
