From Deso Mihailov : Enough already
Myles,
This hysteria is going way out of hand already.
I enjoy reading your blog, been doing that for the last ten years.
But now the site looks like an epitaph – you’ve been constantly repeating one and the same thing – the doom and gloom and all that, and your readers are also reflecting the same thing in their mails.
What has the blog become? Is it the official site of the disappointed Arsenal supporters?
Come on, every Arsenal supporter around the world, who has at least some sense of realism could see what is wrong at our beloved club.
And everyone could also see that a drastic change is inevitable.
It’ll happen sooner rather that later – will it be next summer, when we finish out of the top 4, or the summer after that, nobody knows for sure.
But until then, let’s just sit back, calm a bit, and try to understand that at the end of day, football is just a game.
Every team has up and downs, every manager loses it at some point, every board has to own up to the fans at some point.
Until then, let’s just see how this team goes about without Cesc, Nasri, Clichy and whoever else leaves.
Mind you, but I’m sick of hearing players whining about not winning trophies and giving that as a reason to leave.
Well, excuse me, Mr. Samir Nasri, but why didn’t you win a trophy at Arsenal? Were you on a pitch against Birmingham, or were you not?
But enough of this, I don’t want to be pointing fingers, all I wanna say is that whoever wants to leave – good luck and and good riddance.
As for us – we are already deeply saddened about what’s happened to Arsenal, but let’s just don’t go crazy about it – change will come.
Myles replies :
I’ve spent more time with football managers than 99% of my readers.
That is a fact. Journalists spend far more time with managers than with players, especially since 1992.
And I’ll tell you this : every manager loses the plot. Every manager makes big mistakes, every manager has to own up in the end.
Except Wenger, the French King of Arsenal.
Arsene XVI’s creed has been : I am the state, I am the club, do it my way or I’ll leave.
His clear, loud message to Stan Kroenke was : Don’t interfere, or I’ll leave.
There is nobody with the balls to call his bluff.
Silent Stan, the big billionaire, behaves like a man who has no money.
