I find it somewhat disturbing how these so-called Arsenal supporters want to burn Arsene Wenger at the stake for not buying any players yet.... and this was the 1st of June! Now I'm not exactly sure of the date the window closes but I'm quite sure there's at least a couple of months before we should be sending AW and the board to the firing squad.
Now, if I were an astute businessman I dear say I wouldn't have the time to be reading half the rubbish thats been plastered on these blogs and dare I say, I also wouldn't be worrying about whats going on at Arsenal at the moment because from the outside it seems as though these guys that are doing whats best for the club that is AFC. Of course we want trophies, but to risk a possible/probable takeover by buying "name" players is something that AW just won't do. We haven't won anything in 3 years; so bloody what! The eighties weren't that fantastic for us either, the nineties were a bit better but now we're supposed to win every year....I don't think so kids. Imagine if Usamov were in charge. No more Wenger for sure! Look at the Chavs, Champions League finalist and out goes Grant after 8 months as manager. Didn't they win back to back titles in 05 and 06 before they sacked Jose last year?
I suppose I could go on and on but I think you get what I'm trying to say.
Most of us have played football at one point, whether its Sunday park stuff or better. One thing that I know for sure is that, if a team doesn't have confidence in the captain (who is usually there best player) the captain starts doubting himself and usually tries to do too much and fails. I'm happy to have AW captaining my club, I have confidence in his ability and I want him to lead my team that is AFC.
The trophies will come to those who wait.
Life could be worse...I could have been a Tottenham supporter!
