Arsenal

1 week without internet alot to read tru. i read thru 4 arsenal fans blog. Seems like i really miss alot. Burnsley, wigan and porto. Not sure if u guys read about eboue personal show in wigan match.

Eboue was said to tackle toure and pass e ball to wigan player. Didnt see it myself but i will be looking for e video before any further comments.

Now on to the belated william gallas report.
1st in his biography he referred to a guy 8 years younger in french squad with name starting with a S______. during that period the only youngster in french team were samir nasri. Its was reported that they had a quarrel during training. Gallas said that if he were a 18 year old he would not have spoke to some 1 who is in the game for 10 years with that kind of attitude.

2nd here reveal that there were unhappiness and quarrels in the dressing room during half-time of 4-4 draw with tottenham. Its was reported tat he said that he had to break up a fight between van persie and walcott. The 25 year old also insulted the team.

The only 25 year old were eboue eduardo and van persie. Eduardo did not play, thus the obvious candidate was van persie. But after chelsea match van persie pleaded innocent and tat he played no part in the incident. Eboue is now the primary suspect.

Gallas was stripped of captaincy the nx day. What gallas did was wrong but i felt that the way wenger handled the situation was more severe den it should be. Left behind for man city trip and strip of captaincy. The way wenger handled it was ruthless. I tot he might attribute the whole gallas thing as “misquoted” “misunderstood” or “mischievously misinterpreted”

Wenger could have let the whole thing died off if he wanted but instead he choose to punish gallas. Its seems to me to be more than meet the eyes. Something must have happened. But for all e right or wrong reason, this is a right move

1st the situation is so bad now that fabregas dun have any pressure at all to be a captain. If he fails to inspire arsenal, its because arsenal is weak, lousy players, lack of depth.
If arsenal lose, he wont be blamed because arsenal have lost to fulham hull and stoke. Whatever he do he wont be a fault, thus no pressure. If he do well and arsenal win, all the credit will be fabregas. A win win situation for wenger.

2nd there is faction in the team, ppl who like gallas and ppl who dun. How can a team play well when the captain is not well receive by some ppl. Fabregas is the undisputed to be captain. Simply nobody did more for arsenal den him.

3rd wenger wanted to give fabregas a sense of responsibility to arsenal. As a captain fabregas cannot turn his back on arsenal if other big club came calling. Wenger wanted fabregas to feel indebted to arsenal, to wenger. If fabregas fail to win arsenal trophy he cant leave, because that will be like letting arsenal down. If arsenal win anything wenger will acclaim that fabregas is icon, legend and captain of arsenal making it difficult to leave.

Watever the reason is, for long term and short term this is a right decision to appoint fabregas as captain and gallas outburst only serve to set all this up for wenger plot.

Its also quite so funny to me suddenly arsenal seems to be under alot of pressure. Every match, may it be burnsley wigan or fulham, its seems like a must win. A loss or draw seems to be crisis. Fans will call for head and said bla and bla play like zidane against man u and chelsea but against wigan he play like salif diao. Every arsenal player is so scrutinized that dey can no longer have a bad day.

But this is a hole that the players digged for demself and wenger is the 1 who gave them the shovel.
