he wanted to be a big fish in a small pond
4th choice with us or star player, leader and talisman at Tottenham.
He wanted first team football and spurs had lost CB's over the summer. Arsenal, on the other hand, are very strong in that position.
Easy decision for a guy looking to take a step up in his career.
He looked at Koscielny, Vermaelen, Mertesacker, and compared it to King, Gallas, Kaboul and thought to himself "I know where I'll get more games."
...because I wanted to be first-choice and not fourth.
What a well thought out and informative article
Can't get ahead of TV for Belgium.
TCB: Just repeating what he said.
He knew he wouldn't play for us. We don't need him. We have 3 centre backs who are all better than him.
He's just bitter.
Vertonghen rejected Arsenal...after Arsenal didn't make an offer for Vertonghen.

'Arsenal did try to sign me, but I'd already made my decision that I wanted to play for Tottenham,' Vertonghen announced.
'I chose Spurs because they gave me a good feeling. I spoke to Daniel Levy and Rafael van der Vaart.'
Whatever OP.
Is someone going to link all the players that rejecte Tottenham or shall i?
If Kos can't get in the team then Vertonghen has no chance. He made a wise move not joining us. Too good to rot on our bench.
