i love Arsenal
I love Arsenal the Gunners! If one asked you to name a team in the world that plays attractive football then your eyes should look no where other than the North london football club nicknamed the Gunners.This team does not only play attractive football but the most entertaining football which football fans would like not to miss.It is common to find fans of rival clubs like Manchester United , Liverpool, Chealsea name it all abandoning their clubs to watch these lads playing.Ask Roman Abromovich why Jose Mourinho was sacked despite winning two premier league trophies and an FA CUP in three seasons.What shocks me is the fact that even the young Gunners duplicates what the senior team displays and even big teams have suffered with this rare style of football.Ask the Liverpool fans what transpired at Arnifield in the Carling cup when these young Gunners went and smashed the senior side of Liverpool 6 goals to three a day Steven Gerald as acaptain of REDS will live to remember as it had taken long for Liverpool to lose by this margin at Arnifield.Now the question is is it Arsenal football club that plays attractive and entertaining football or it is Arsene Wengers's Philosophy that has transformed the club into what is known to be now.Looking at his predecessors especially the last three ie Don Howe, George Graham,Bruce Rioch,In 1997/98, registered some success but this trade mark of Attractive and entertaining football remains patented to this French born Economist in the names of Arsene Wenger.Despite his limited spending on big names Arsene Wenger has worked with raw talent which he has nurtured to produce excellent display.The likes of Thiery Henry, Robert Pires, Kolo Toure, Cesc Fabregas,Flamin , Van persie name it all came from no where and neither of them costed above 13 million pounds but were turned into great players by this great magician.During his reign Arsenal became the only team in England that went unbeaten for 49 games. What a brilliant display.I began supporting this club during the Wenger's regime and may be that is why i have great respect for this French born tactician.Arsenal remains my team irrespective of the trophies it wins.Those who support teams because of trophies must think twice and ask them selves if teams like Derby county, Watford etc would have fans.
