Not much happening, to be honest.
We’re at the very height of the Interlulll and you know things are slow when Arsene Wenger is talking about international football. Still, Arsenal’s star summer signing can help ease the blues as he’s going to be back from injury any time now.
Amaury Fishshop was signed from Werder Bremen for free (they even threw in all his plaster casts and traction) and he’s hopeful he’ll be back in contention for a place in the squad soon. He says:
The injury is getting better bit by bit. I’ve been doing ball work for five or six days now and I am running three times a week. I’m nearly pain-free and hope to be back as soon as possible. The ball is fascinating to me. I know it’s an integral part of the game but I still haven’t quite worked out exactly what it’s for. I’m hoping that with continued exposure to it its purpose will become clear.
Arsene Wenger has admitted his signing is a ‘gamble’ but what is clear is that he’s not a central-midfielder. He sees himself as more of an attacking player, perhaps another option for when Rosicky picks up another 10 month injury after just a couple of games. In the meantime they can keep each other company and cry through the dark times.
Loads of our players are in action tonight for their countries as the world cup qualifying campaigns kick off. Some of the games will be on TV where you are. You can watch if you want. I won’t be, I don’t think. I think I’m going to take advantage of the glorious weather here, lie on my back and drown myself.
You know they actually have ads on the radio here telling us we have to conserve water. I mean, what the fuck is that about? They say watering your lawn for an hour takes up 500 litres of water, or something. Who the fuck needs to water their lawn in Dublin for an hour? At this point it’s probably already under three feet of rain. Here’s a better idea you pack of wankers, instead of telling us not to use the water we have why don’t you cunts figure out a way of keeping it better? Honestly, it’s like telling people in the desert they have to be careful about how much sand they use.
Right, lots to do this morning so I’d best get on and do it. Till tomorrow.
