Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has admitted that he is open to the idea of the Premiership playing at least one round of games abroad. The initial idea is for foreign football from 2010/2011.
"My instinctive reaction is not to be against innovation, because I believe as well you have to accept an innovative attitude," he told Sky Sports.
"I like the fact that the Premier League are not just in a routine and that people out there are thinking 'how can we continue to improve and promote the game?'
"I believe it can only be valid if you respect important criteria. The first is to respect the competitive side of our game.
"The second is respect the quality of organisation that you have inside the game and fairness of the game. That is important criteria that have to be on top of the innovative factor.
"If that is all respected then why not? 10 per cent of people who love the clubs have access to the games, but 90 never have access to the games.
