31 apparently. He might be a red herring though - the smart money appears to be on Ameobi, or, well, no-one actually.
some help?
and maybe any idea with this "state of the arch" that I asked previously? Or something similar?

a red herring is a piece of news designed to put people off the true story. or as wiki puts it :
In literature, a red herring is a narrative element intended to distract the reader from a more important event in the plot, usually a twist ending.
The term "red herring" originates from the tradition whereby young hunting dogs in Britain were trained to follow a scent with the use of a "red" (salted and smoked) herring (see kipper). This pungent fish would be dragged across a trail until the puppy learned to follow the scent. Later, when the dog was being trained to follow the faint odor of a fox or a badger, the trainer would drag a red herring (which has a much stronger odor) across the animal's trail at right angles. The dog would eventually learn to follow the original scent rather than the stronger scent.

I think the other one is "state of the art". If I have the latest TV, then the bloke who tried to sell it to me will have called it state of the art. I would then have punched him in the nose for being a pretentious tosser and bought the TV from Argos.
ok, will try to remember it, But I don't think it fits the scene from the film. I'll try to record and upload it, maybe I'm just not able to catch the whole sentence or mishear the words...
Can there be something like this?
"you think your judgement is state of the art"
"you think your judgement is state of the art"
Don't think so... state of the art I think is usually something of high quality, up to date, or the finest around.
Then I have no idea what mr. Clooney is trying to say.

He is indeed saying "state of the art", but it is meaningless in this context.
