Arsene Wenger believes a back-three of Shkodran Mustafi, Laurent Koscielny and Nacho Monreal is the way forward this season, with the latter pair flanking the former at the heart of the Arsenal defence.

The French tactician is preparing to lead his troops into battle against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday and is set to stick with the 3-4-3 formation he’s deployed throughout the season.
Wenger has used four different back-three combinations in the Premier League so far this season, with Rob Holding and Sead Kolasinac also getting game time, and Monreal has been the only ever present in his role.

But the Arsenal boss seems to have settled on his favoured defence after the 3-0 win over Bournemouth and believes a Koscielny-Mustafi-Monreal combination looks ‘well-balanced’.
‘He’s reading the game well, strong in the challenge, and he likes to talk as well, so that’s an important quality in that part of the pitch,’ he said of Mustafi.
‘On both sides of him, we have Koscielny and Monreal who are quick, so that looks well-balanced.

‘Communication is very, very important. In the organisation, it’s very important that you talk early, and sometimes you have to be very vocal because the crowd is shouting.
‘The timing of your talking and sometimes how loud you are is very important.

The unofficial levy was announced in the window of Thompson Chemists in the Soho district of Manhattan on Monday, alongside another sign declaring that "all female customers shop tax free". The move has triggered a passionate debate on Reddit and Facebook , fuelled by an image of the independent shop's window, which has been viewed several hundred thousand times on the photo sharing site Imgur. An employee of Thompson Chemists confirmed to BBC Trending that the new policy was to highlight instances of gender pricing discrepancy. It follows a study conducted by the New York City Department of Consumer Affairs which found that on average "women's products cost 7% more than similar products for men." The gender price gap was even greater when it came to adult clothes and personal...

Body Language :: Hand to face gestures

The Mouth Guard The mouth guard is one of the few adult gestures that is as obvious as a child's. The hand covers the mouth and the thumb is pressed against the cheek as the brain sub-consciously instructs it to try and suppress the deceitful words that are being said. Sometimes this gesture may only be several fingers over the mouth or even a closed fist, but its meaning remains the same. Many people try to disguise the mouth guard gesture by giving a fake cough.If the person who is speaking uses this gesture, it indicates that he is telling a lie. If, however, he covers his mouth while you are speaking, it indicates that he feels you are lying! Nose Touching and Eye Rub The Nose Touch - In essence, the nose touch gesture is a sophisticated, disguised version of the mouth guard gesture.
