As I sat up late last night, watching Falling Skies was not enough to make me tired till much later, Arsenal’s twitter posted a new article. I was interested. It had information regarding Saturday’s team news. As I read I found out nothing more that I already knew.
1. Everyone is fit except Diaby (of course) and Wilshere.
2. Nasri and Cesc would not be included in the travelling squad due to unforeseen circumstances (they are both leaving)
Therefore, I do not understand why some Arsenal fan’s get annoyed by the fact that Wenger was secretive during his Press Conference this morning. We know Mr Wenger is the Grand Master of saying lots without saying anything at all. I some what envy him.
I would love to be able to waffle on about a subject that everyone wants to know about, without actually saying anything at all. But then again that could be why I hate most people that do this. You know the ones that think they know everything, but realistically they know as much as you, but they are more self obsessed that they feel the need to feel good about themselves. [Wooahh, what happened there]
But yes, we know he can get a bee in his bonnet and be arsey to the press so I do not see why people are so annoyed.
Let everyone just think in the worst possible scenario (or the one that everyone wants). Where Cesc and Nasri leave for around about £50 million. Because it is becoming increasingly likely that it is going to happen. We need to realise this. As much as I want it to not be true. It more than likely is.
To be honest as long as we spend at least half that money on a 24-27 year old playmaker and a defender. I will be more than happy. Everyone knows we need a stronger defender. I feel we need a playmaker of that age to replace Cesc, yes we have Ramsey and maybe other players can play there but we need that creativity in the midfield and someone with a few more ideas than our current options.
The next few weeks up to the 31st August when the transfer window closes will be very interesting. Should we have waited till after the season starts to replace them. Yes I think so.
In other news I have bought a new pair of football boots for my first full season in the 1st team at Southgate County (see below). They are a pair of Adidas Predator Adipower’s I bought them for £114.99 (RRP £154.99). I love them so far. I will let you know how they get on at the weekend when I have my first pre season game against Croxley at Potters Bar FC.
