Ian Wright, Hypocrite
Thursday, 01 November 07, 09:28 PM · Comments(2)
Ex-Arsenal "legend" Ian Wright has been talking up Arsenal's chances this season, and about how Thierry Henry's departure was a good thing for the team:
"Thierry had an influence in the dressing room which was becoming too stifling for a lot of people...That showed in the way he played sometimes because he had his arms flailing and was upset with what they were doing. I think his departure was great for the club because a lot of players are coming out of their shells. Everybody's playing with more freedom and they all want to be the man by doing their bit."
Which is all well and good, except for what you said earlier in the season Wrighty:
"However, I think the hole left by Thierry Henry is just too big.
I was obviously sad to see him leave this summer. It’s not just his goals that will be missed but his presence as well. Any Arsenal fans who thought his departure would not cause a problem were kidding themselves."
So then you're not an Arsenal fan? Make sure you have someone to help you clean up the egg off your face.
Remember that old saying - "Empty vessels make the most noise"? Well he's is a perfect example of it (just listen to him on the radio, or see him as a pundit if you need more proof).

Watching Sky in the Uk you will not have failed to see the advert that features Wrigthy and Lee Dixon arguing over whether Liverpool or Man U will win the title. Filthy lucre telling the true story.
No real fan would ever have taken money to say that!
I agree. Pretty much everyone knows Ian Wright speaks rubbish and suffers from chronic foot in mouth - but being an Arsenal Legend I tend to forgive him more and consider his musings more
entertainment than informed opinion.
Interestingly Lee Dixon is a Citeh fan.
