But it opens a little bit the opportunity of this transfer market because Chelsea have already played twice against Manchester United so they don’t play again any more. They could have sold him last week. Some teams have already played twice against one opponent and some not. I think if you want to respect the fairness for everybody that should not happen."
"I can understand completely what Chelsea is doing. They do not make the rules but maybe the rules should be adapted for more fairness. They have done nothing wrong, they just play with the rules. Maybe the transfer window should stop when everybody has played once. "I think it’s a financial reason, too... That is the first time I have come to that conclusion with Chelsea. It means somewhere that Chelsea has changed philosophy and they want to get in line with Financial Fair Play. That is the main reason, that is a good thing."
The press then spin it, in the case of the Daily Saddam Hussein... "Wenger accuses Chelsea of selling secret weapon Mata to dent rivals' title chances"
He accused nobody.
Then Maureen had his tantrum and that's the story so far.
