Hypocrite or What ???

Wenger concerned English clubs are losing their soul

LONDON, (AFP) - Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger on Friday expressed his concerns about the number of foreign owners of Premiership clubs.

The Frenchman lined out a first XI in the Champions League on Wednesday without an British player in the line-up.

But he believes that something is being lost as a result of the takeover of top clubs by non-British owners.

"This trend (of foreign ownership) does worry me. Generally you want the clubs to be in control of their own destiny. If you suddenly have 20 foreign investors who buy 20 English clubs you are in danger," Wenger told Arsenal's magazine.

"The manager is foreign, the players are foreign, you need to draw a line. England doesn't control it any more.

"I feel the soul of football in this country is first granted by the owners of the clubs. Here, for example, at Arsenal I feel I am really at an English club.

"Traditionally the people who owned the clubs were first and foremost supporters. If that ceases to be the case then the clubs lose something."

Hypocrite or what ??? Guy who has half the French national team playing for him...saying this.. This is why Man Utd rules all.. They are no FrenchARSES, no LiverSPAINS....Promoting Home Grown English Talent :). When all clubs were running after big names across the globe Sir Alex decided to go for Mr Michael Carrick.
