I’m 21, I started supporting Arsenal sometime in the late 99’s….I can’t remember exactly when(maybe ninth grade)… I can certainly remember a couple of games in those season in which they lookd very good n they were te only team challengin Man U who dominated most part of English soccer along wit Liverpool…..In a country wher ppl r die hard fans of te game cricket ,I cant even talk abt soccer to frnds in ma school who don’t even care for dis game
….To me its te game of passion n pride where true sportsmanship is revealed …players play wit real sportin spirits…..
To me coach Wenger undoubtedly te most wise manager on dis planet…. Its been amazing bein an Arsenal fan or Wenger fan over dese years…..Hes a kinda manager who goes for youngsters n make dem to play in his own style…In a coupla of yrs al dese youngsters wil be stars of te game(Henry,Anelka,Reyes,Walcott,Cesc etc)… Over the last 10 years Arsenal have been fairly consistent up until last year we were always in the top 2…, last year even though we finished 4th we got to the Champions League final and although we lost it was still one of the best days of my life, the day in Paris, the build up, going 1-0 up, everything was amazing apart from the result… it was bit unfortunate (Jens Lehman red card decision in te final) we lost it to Barcelona ….But I never gonna let down ma hopes ….Sure Arsenal under Wenger wil be winin te European glory in te comin yrs…..
This season has had its highs n lows,even now we r just about to reach the Champions League again….We hav been performin wel wit bigger clubs(defeated ManU twice,Liverpool thrice n drew wit Chelsea),but losin to weaker clubs shows te lack of consistency …. Criticism is beginning to flow down on the side and the manager from all sides…. I can understand peoples frustrations, i can understand a lot of the criticism but some of the people criticising were the same people who were defending the side.. We were struggling to score without Henry n Robin van Persie who r out injured…they are our 2 top scorers… it was very disappointing to see a club wit such a quality to perform such badly for te past two seasons….. Definitely frustrating…..is dis te time for complete team restructuring? I would say No. I stil believe Wenger n his boys ….they lagged some experience …Now they hav te experience after playin two season….Next season they wil put up some solid performance n bring home some silverware….I think te team needs one more quality winger n a striker….
The midfield is a bit of mess dis season…. Of the entire side this is the area that is cause for most concern. ….When Hleb has been a disaster dis season… he simply does not suit our style, he is not an Arsenal player…. Rosicky is an Arsenal player, he works hard, makes good decisions, scores a few more goals, but he needs a goal scoring winger on the other side….(Y cant it be Ribery???) Cesc is having a good season,…deres a lot he has to prove dat hes te best…he keeps on improving frm each game… Then there’s the youngsters, Denilson, Diaby, Walcott will all be better for this season….I still beleive we have a good squad, i think some of the players we have at the moment are short on confidence, but with a couple of improvements and a new attitude we will be better next season…
Though bein frustrated wit Arsenal’s performance for te past two seasons,stil I cant stay away frm supporting te club…Wil te good old memories of te 2003-04 season (Arsenal won te championship undefeated) can be seen in near future??? Wateva te results they produce , a gunner fan here singin, hopin his team wil bring up te past memories true….
And did those boots af Arsenal’s team
Walk upon Highbury’s turf so green?
And did they play with great esteem
The best football we’ve ever seen?
And with a cannon on our chest
We play with heart, and mind, and zest
And we are proud to be Arsenal
In Victory Through Harmony
