You might have noticed how most other Arsenal blogs have simply pulled down the shutters and are putting their feet up until international week is over. Not Arseblog though, oh no. Can’t think why though because there’s fuck all to talk about and I could do with a rest. A man of my advancing years can’t cope with all these extra-early mornings, you know. Or I could use the time better to make meself a nice breakast of kippers and toast rather than just a hastily munched bowl of cereal. Ever get cornflakes on your keyboard? I don’t recommend it.
I was going to say something about the Highbury Auction thing but it all seems a bit cheap and tasteless to me. I might bid €2,50 for Pascal though. He could be my version of Jack Nicholson’s butler from The Witches of Eastwick. It might even attract a stray Pfeiffer too, who can tell?
In what little Arsenal news there is the Chairman reveals he wasn’t keen on going after Chelsea following the Cashley Cole affair saying all clubs tap up players. He also says the manager has money to spend, but says “Arsene Wenger is not going to buy players to make up numbers. He wants players who can play in the Champions League and, apart from Hleb, he has not found anyone.”
Sol Campbell looks set to miss out as Sven picks Rio and John Terry for England’s game against somebody on Saturday and that’s about it.
Don’t forget the competition to win the Wunderground t-shirt from harderthansatan.com. See yesterday’s blog for the question and where to send it.
Right, off to work. Getting a bit chillier these mornings. No sandwich today. Will have to buy one out there. Lunch alert finished. Arseblogger over and out.
