Wenger touched on how football is now more suited to a player of Cristiano Ronaldo's ilk: "It's [creative style] finer, even if I don't deny the quality of the Portuguese star. I just believe that football has evolved into the Ronaldo style. This does not mean that we should eliminate the creative. The rules must evolve to make the game more spectacular, more beautiful to see." Paul Merson predicts the result of Newcastle vs Chelsea and other EPL GW 16 fixtures!
