Arsenal
fans will have been a bit worried to
say the least when the news came in on Saturday that our opponents for the first
game of the Premier League season had just put the mighty Barcelona to the sword, with a 4 - 0 win against a strong side including their former striker Luis Suarez, Messi, Iniesta and all.
Its seems to me that both the club and it's
fans are not serious.Anytime Arsenal sign a youngster from another team who is dubbed the next whatever people come out and
say Arsenal have just signed a youngster who may or may not make it and that Arsene should sign ready made.They
say it to seem as if it's a bad thing.Now that Chris Willock is leaving I'm anticipating that a lot of people are soon going to be blaming the same Wenger who actually likes bringing in youngsters.Anyway you have to look at the reasons he lfet.It's for
game time and to him he thinks its a good choice.The bright side is that he's not Arsenal's most talented player.The likes of Donyell Malen, Yassin Fortune, Reiss Nelson in my eyes have more potential as wingers.I also think Arsenal should be very excited about Eddie Nketiah and Stephy Mavididi.They can be world class strikers in the future particularly Eddie.
Wengers method of bluffing the board &
fans to keep him for a further season... > We loose enough
games to take us completely off winning the league, then
say it wasn't in our control, we then fight till the end and win last few
games so we look good and like we worked hard to earn the 4th place trophy.He then links us with awesome transfers (which we all know wont happen), and finally while Man U / City and Chelsea organise pre-season friendlies against top clubs, we play the weak ones, win and look all good to go next season without any additions... AND THEN REALITY STRIKES..
I'm going to repeat what I
said earlier... this team actively pursued a policy to undermine the relationship between the
fans and the best player on this team... for all intent and purposes this is a traitorous act... so instead of spending money, which all pundits and
fans agreed was necessary in order to compete at the highest levels, this club was wasting time and money trying to turn
fans against Sanchez long before the end of the season (the real concerted effort started around the time that Wenger benched him for the start of the Liverpool
game)... for a team that pertains to be different, like a FAMILY, and constantly questions the tactics of it's opponents, to engage in such a treasonous act is deplorable
They then showed a clip of him missing in his last
game, they
said look away Arsenal
fans, but rather than being disappointed, I liked that he went for the dink over the keeper, even the best can hit the crossbar..
Ive been supporting Arsenal for 65 years to
say im dissapointed, well words fail me Why did we let the window slip by and not do the business in the begining get in quick and get our players signed and out as well but NO we buggered about with the DREAMER for 6 weeks dithering with expensive so called talent and what we get another Frenchman, soon we will be able to
say we have the whole french international team here The way to go is to boycott the home
games and make it known the
fans run the club not the useless manager or the lackluster board who do nt know who plays for us and are not interested in football per
say just the money Buy Kroenke out and let him go as well
Still, there is nothing wrong with
fans expressing their opinion at the
game, because if we cut to the bone, Kroenke and the board have been silently exploiting the
fans (or should I
say paying customers) for years, and Wenger is obviously an advocate of this.
