Wenger: defends foreign policy

Wenger: defends foreign policy

07 December 2007 - 17:58

Arsene Wenger has defended his foreign policy that he is adopting at Arsenal - and also defended the fact that English players are not getting a chance in his Premiership topping side.

  • Chelsea join Liverpool & Man Utd in race to sign 26yo
  • Barcelona identify Arsenal midfielder as key transfer target

  • "For me it doesn't make any difference where people come from," Wenger told Sky Sports News.



    "You cannot want the most popular league in the world and have everybody come from one country. It doesn't work like that. That would be miraculous.



    "You can close your eyes and not want any competition or you can open your eyes and say 'we have the best players in the world here' let us produce players of that quality.



    "In this situation we have a bunch of people who just want to shut their eyes and say let us come back within ourselves.



    "But I feel England are going the right way to produce good young players.



    "If you become the best players in the world there is no problem with foreign players."
