Arsenal launch Investigation as Cologne fans arrive without tickets and vandalize stadium in order to get in




Knowing Arsenal was at home, it is law that the home fans will be preferred in ticket sales number over Cologne fans. But Cologne fans were not having that.

17,000 fans arrived at the Emirates Stadium even after only 3,000 tickets were sold. They broke fences and tried to get in and also stop Arsenal fans from getting into the stadium as well.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has said he expects UEFA to launch an investigation following the attacks. He said:
"The 3,000 tickets issues to Cologne fans was in line with competition rules but it is clear many more visiting fans arrived, causing significant congestion and disturbance outside the stadium before kick-off.

Many tickets were sold through touts and this is very disappointing."

Chelsea won't sign new players - Jose Mourinho

Chelsea will make no signings in the January transfer window, says manager Jose Mourinho. The team has enough capable and balanced players to even out in the coming competitions. The Blues have six matches before January 1, with the first starting today against Hull City. Mourinho plans to rest his senior players for this Yuletide season, saying he is doubtful any one player should appear in all the six matches. The manager has granted his European-based players a two-day 'holiday' to rest and 'have a nice dinner with their families'. The former Real Madrid manager's side meets Hull City in the Premier league today. Petr Cech will replace injured skipper goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois in the Hull City face-off. Cesc Fabregas is ruled out for suspension and midfielder Nemanja Matic joins the squad after ban.
