november 21st
Another Monday. These things get kind of repetitive, don’t they?
Not a lot going on, I have to say. You can read AW’s thoughts on Saturday’s game here and I’m a bit uneasy about how he’s making excuses for Pascal Cygan. It’s not his first game at left back and with the greatest of respect to the two Wigan players he mentions we’re going to come up against better quality than that.
One of the first games at the new stadium could be Dennis Bergkamp’s testimonial. He says “I think they have to have two or three preparation events at Emirates before the season starts, and a testimonial could be one of those. It will be nice to have some connection with the new stadium. I will have an idea what it will be like to play there because I don’t think there’s any chance of another season from me.”
We’ve got FC Thun in the Champions League tomorrow night and point will secure our position at the top of the table and we’ll go through as group winners. I wonder will there be a few changes in terms of personnel. With qualification already in the bag it would be good to give Senderos a game in defence and maybe throw on someone like Quincy or Lupoli in the second half to give them a bit more experience. We’ll see.
Right, work again. No lunch, will have to buy a sandwich out there.
