Ok, here’s what I want you to do…
Forget about our crappy 1-1 yesterday – a game I thought we deserved to win with the amount of chances we made but we were done by that giant Crouch.
Forget about how Robin van Persie got a red card (wasn’t it amusing to see AW bellow ‘I TOLD YOU!” at him as he skulked off the park?!).
Forget that we lost 3-1 in Munich during the week. Forget we’re now 4 points behind Manchester United in the league.
Forget about the fact we need a new keeper (Lehmann’s flap yesterday was very poor), an entirely new defence, 8 new midfielders, at least 4 strikers, a defensive coach, a new driver for the team bus and possibly a new bloke who hangs the shirts up in the dressing room.
Forget the fact that I have a raging hangover and I feel like I’ve been battered (we won 4-1 yesterday, btw, and they had a player taller that Peter Crouch – of course he scored their goal but I wasn’t marking him).
Forget that I have little recollection of coming home apart from buying 6 beers from the beer monkeys for the walk (I have 2 left) and some Nigerian bloke kept trying to sell me cocaine on the Ramblas. To shut him up I gave him a beer and we talked about Kanu, I think.
Forget all those things and raise a glass (Mojito or beer – put your mouse over the image to choose) as Arseblog celebrates its third birthday today. On this day in 2002 the site began and amazingly it’s still going. Thank you all for visiting, commenting, contributing and making Arseblog the greatest Arsenal website by an Irish bloke in Barcelona ever. I love you all.
Now where are my presents, you cunts?
