Anxious Years

Being the only Arsenal fan in Wales is a big responsibility. When I first moved to Cardiff, things were on the up, we'd won the league unbeaten the year before, and we managed to scrape the FA cup with the most underwhelming performance in a cup final.

Things looked good, although we were losing players (good riddance to Cashley), I could see some kind of plan with different players coming in to strenghten the side. For example, we had Kolo Toure, an obvious transfer would have been Yaya, and this would have solved the problems in central midfield.

Well. 6 years of selling players and the only player still at Arsenal that was in the 2005 FA Cup squad is Van Persie. I saw the line up of for the Sunderland game and only 4 starting players were people who would have been in the squad (not even starters) from last season, and that season was shit too!

Anyway, we won last night away in Marseille, so not all hope lost just yet.
