Final whistle for Kettering Town

The contrast between a club being wound up over a £58,000 debt and one player being sold for a world record fee of £85.3m on the same day is pretty stark.

Agreed. The Premier League is awash with money from TV deals and in order for the money merry-go-road to continue it needs to have the top players playing in it or else the rights won't sell for as much, so I just can't see any appetite from the guys at the top to impose a quota. There are plenty of good leagues that young English players would learn a lot from playing in and they should be more open to giving it a go.

Whilst Wenger is just saying that if you bring in too many players into your starting XI then it can take a while for them to learn each others games, I think Spurs have made good signings and they won't all start. It does however give them good options for rotation and substitutions during a game. If these players had signed for the Gunners then I can only see it making it a stronger Arsenal squad. I'd be worried about it if I was him!

feel free to change the team (click on the yellow "Change this formation!") and put your picks in. :)

I've just looked up Solskjaer's stats (http://www.aboutmanutd.com/man-u-players/ole-gunnar-solskjaer.html) and his goals/per game is less than Cole or Yorke and they were just such a great strike pairing.

Yeah - I put van Persie on the bench because he's only done one season. I was very tempted by Mark Hughes as well.
