Who cares about 30%? That obsession is a relic from previous rules which meant 30% equalled a place on the board. That rule changed. Now it's because it could make a lot of noise but he has been making a lot of noise already, he usually releases a biannual statement to stir things up. The last one is it will put pressure on Stan but what pressure? They're his shares and he can sell when he wants. You can't force him to sell.

The 30% is just inside baseball, an obsession for people who need things to talk about.

It does make sense. Picking players with experience in the Premier League is a safer bet than picking ones from a league where the defenders work at a slower pace. If there is a great player out there in Ligue 1 then that's fine but it's a risker market as you'll be unsure of how they'll adapt. You either take a risk or buy expensive players. There are good players who don't cost a lot but they're much harder to find. After all if they were a sure thing then people would be willing to pay a lot more.

Also I agree it's about picking the right quality - I don't think anyone disagrees with that. However players don't come with 'right quality' stamped on their foreheads. You have to find them. That's the hard part.

I don't know. Ashley Williams has been mentioned by The Guardian. I think that's not a bad shout as he has Premier League experience and plays in a team who play in a similar way to Arsenal, high lines and lots of passing. If I knew someone I could be sure of then I would be a scout :D.

I find defenders one of the hardest positions to judge because their skill can largely depend on the rest of their team. Stoke defend aggressively as an entire team, with the midfield behind the ball and disciplined lines. This helps their defenders. Arsenal defend with a high line and the midfield attack more leaving them exposed. It's harder to defend when you have players running like a bullet towards your goal. Additionally TV is awful at letting you judge players anticipation and positioning. A defensive interception on TV often looks like a misplaced pass from the opposition because the camera didn't show you the defender anticipation that pass and getting into position. This is one of the reasons I really rate Koscielny, it doesn't come across on TV but his reading of the game really is excellent. You watch him in the stadium and see how often and how quickly he responds to a danger and snuffs it out, it's impressive.

forgot to mention Usmanov could actually do more to stir things up. his open letter was on point, the second release was though not needed at the time. apart from the second slip up he hasnt really done much to disrupt. Arsenal officials have done that all themselves.

everythings a risk. again its about buying the right quality. there is quality in Ligue1. There is quality in other leagues. Its about buying that quality instead of flops. other clubs are buying the quality, why is Wenger opting for flops instead? there on pretty big wages too if you compare what other clubs have signed on what wages those players are on.

No we do need quality players. How can we ensure we get them though? That's why I am more inclined to get defenders from the Premiership.

I don't mind losing, and didn't expect to win at Anfield, where our record is poor, but to lose to a cheat - and when he was asked about it, he said that he didn't know.

And when they were walking off, he has an argy bargy with Dembele.

Suerez would win it and todays referee's of the Liverpool game for the worst 'cockup of a penalty'

It was a 'stone wall' penalty but I admit that Suarez exaggerated his fall.

Hasn't bale had more bookings for diving than any other player this season?

Not sure on the exact total but pundits and Bale fans have been attributing the 'dives' to the fact that he is running at terrific pace and the slightest knock will take him out, that's fair enough, until the embarrassing dive on Thursday v Milan, that was cheating.

PS I'm a huge Bale fan (I'm Welsh).

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 
I strongly feel that referee's should give a straight red for diving, this is now starting to become an epidemic, as the officals should be strong enough to decide if its a dive.

I have to say that Saurez is the king of the divers, with Sturridge close behing, along with Hazrad and yes Bale.
