I keep getting this feeling that I’m forgetting something this week. It’s kind of annoying. Especially when I leave the house, I have to double check I’ve got my keys/phone/pants on. No doubt I’ll discover what it is once it’s too late.
Arsene Wenger talks about pressure, having seen his Chelsea counterpart Claudio Ranieri put under the thumb by his new Chief Executive Peter “I’m a United fan” Kenyon who said today that not lifting a trophy this season would be a ‘failure’. Our boss said “I know only one thing – if I don’t win, then I’m disappointed. The pressure coming from everywhere else is different. All the rest you can deal with.“
Poor old Claudio. He strikes me as a really nice bloke, it’s a shame he has to work with such cunts at Chelsea. Bates, Kenyon, Championshipmanavich, Hasselbaink et al. Still, no matter what he does he’s likely to replaced by Sven in the summer, which can only be good news for us as Sven’s teams will always be as spineless and fond of saggy breasted ex-weathergirls as he is.
Edu talks about Arsenal’s current form, the boss confirms Bergkamp’s injury for tonight’s game and Reyes likely start, while the agent of Gerard Pique Bernabeu, the young Barcelona kid we’re supposedly after, plays it dumb and pretends he doesn’t know anything about Arsenal’s very real interest. Poor old Merse.
Thierry Henry could reach 100 Premiership goals for Arsenal tonight. There’s an interesting breakdown of who he’s scored against at the bottom of this article in The Sun. Even that Guardian reading Fowler baiter Graeme Le Saux thinks our man is a bit special.
I suspect I won the lottery this weekend, although I haven’t checked the numbers yet. I might toddle off doon toon to collect my millions. More later.
