Arsenal boss Wenger blames middle-men for Suarez transfer howler

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has hinted they were poorly advised by middle men over their bid for Liverpool striker Luis Suarez.

Arsenal put in a bid of £40,000,001 after being told that it might trigger a release clause in Suarez's contract at Liverpool.

Wenger said: "I don't want to speak in detail about that. It's not the moment. One day, why not? I think it's not the moment to talk about that. I just said it's over.

"We have to get on with our lives. You seem to know as much as I know about the situation so I don't think we need for me to clarify that."
