The season is now officially over and we are once again without trophies – we did, however, play some proper football!
In years to come I wonder if anyone will remember this and talk about the Arsenal team of 2007-2008 being the best team that ever was not to win anything... will anyone ever know this or will the kids of the future just look at the form book and think we were shit?
No chance – those glorious games where we played total football will be scrunched up cast into the memory hole quicker than the Fett gets sucked into a Sarlacc... (you geek).
And much like Lucas and his disgraceful CGI tentacles; for the sake of ultimate profit, history itself will be retrofitted with the convenient truths of the boys with the cash who are clearly running this dirty little show.
So what do we Gooners have to look forward to this summer?
Hmmm... well – Flamini has gone and Hleb will probably go too... we’ll sign Ben Arfa (apparently) – or some billionaire might just spunk up some more cash and nick him at the last minute. Plus we will get another player with experience from another Premiership side!
*oooh – we wonder who* (seriously – I’ve no idea, not like Wenger at all)
I’m in two minds about Flamini... he clearly knows that, now Berlusconi is back in power, AC Milan will probably do the double – added to that they are offering him a sack of cash to train less, play every other game and not get kicked as much. What would you do? Sign for fucking Arsenal – that’s what I would do... little turd!
Hleb got outrageously tapped up by Inter and his agent is just an odious little cunt of the highest order – although, I do actually understand why Hleb would want to leave. I can’t blame him for not wanting to get kicked in the air all season long with no protection from the ref whatsoever. Thanks to the BBC’s ‘ban Hleb’ campaign masquerading as a match review; that slap on Murty was probably his final comment - well said... if a foreigner slaps an Englishman who deserves a slap the media will hang him. If an Englishman ruins a foreigner because he’s ‘a bit tricky’ then the media will say ‘ooh, what a terrible accident, you must be feeling rotten – have a cup of milky tea Mr. Taylor with two sugars, poor thing’.
Emirates cup here we come!

[13/05/2008 12:04:10] DogFace says: You would pay 2 grand and travel halfway around the world to watch your team get robbed blind by a shit Chelsea side?
