Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is seeking help from Michel Platini to make his team more competitive.

While Wenger acknowledges the advantages enjoyed by rival clubs, he believes UEFA's financial fair play regulations are already beginning to have an impact.

"Some clubs who have spent a lot of money are worrying about the regulations as well," he said.

"We are run in a very responsible way because we make profit every year and at the moment that's where everybody is struggling in Europe.

"All of the clubs are struggling. We find ourselves a little bit in the situation of Germany in Europe.

"I believe society will force football to become more reasonable.

"You cannot imagine that on one side society's standard of living will drop while football will always push up with an inflation. That cannot work together."
