Introduction: Hello and welcome to BBC studios where tonight we discuss Alexis Sánchez transfer rumours, Arsenal and Arsène Wenger’s fallout but first we have an exclusive interview with Romeo Montague.
Interviewer: Romeo Montague, 17, is a young lover who was in love with Juliet, a 13 year old girl that is in love with Romeo. The problem for both of these lovers is their parents are both enemy’s. Just yesterday, after Romeo married Juliet behind their parents back, Romeo got into a fight with …show more content…

Romeo: I hope not. I am going to wait till she is old enough as she is only 13 and I can’t take her away at such a young age. Until she is old enough, then she can move in and we can go somewhere else. I will try and keep in contact with her. I know her dad is trying to marry her with Paris but hopefully it won’t happen.
Interviewer: Do you think killing Tybalt was the correct thing to do.
Romeo: No, I was distraught once Mercutio was killed. I had one thing in my mind, find Tybalt and kill him. As soon as I killed I knew I should have left it and told the prince. Mercutio shouldn’t have died. He was innocent.
Interviewer: Many people from Verona are scared of these civil brawls happening. Do you think this hatred for each household will ever end?
Romeo: I would really hope so. I wish that the Capulets would accept me into their family. Knowing that I have killed Tybalt is going to make it hard for the family’s to stop fighting. If Juliet ever told her parents that I married her then I would never see Juliet again.
Interviewer: Well thank you Romeo for coming on the show and talking about these tragic events. I hope everything goes alright for you and Juliet. Now crossing over to Jeff where Arsenal has now just launched a €95 million for Monaco’s youngster,
