Come on Arsenal fans, be glad to be Gunners!!

I cannot believe how pessimistic some Arsenal fans are at the minute. I know that the club’s transfer business has been disappointing so far this summer, BUT the window does not close until Monday night as far as I am aware. There are people despairing about the Champions League draw and worrying about how we are going to cope with the new Tottenham signings tomorrow. Well all I can say is, wait until Tuesday. I fully expect Arsene to have made a couple of great signings by then. As I watched his press conference from yesterday, it struck me that there is no way he would be so calm, smiling and joking, if he didn’t have a few red hot irons in the fire. He even clearly said he was when somebody asked if he was confident about bringing players in. Add to the fact that he said he would not panic buy, that means the club have players lined up. On to Spurs. Forget about the new players who may or may not even play tomorrow, the biggest change to their team will be the absence of Bale. Let’s be honest, we all hoped he would leave them this summer. You can’t play six players instead of him, only one. Arsenal can field, arguably, our strongest side. Ramsey, Rosicky and Giroud are all much improved from last season and we have the best defensive pairing of Kos and Mert, with Szczesny looking sharp behind them. AVB will be playing for a draw, but he won’t get it. Okay, we got a tough draw in the Champions League, but shit happens. All the other teams will be thinking the same and Wenger and Arsenal are group stage masters. Oh, and we did beat the holders in their own ground last year don’t forget. Also, Poldi and the Ox will only miss a game or two in Europe before they recover. So come on Gooners, suspend your anger until Tuesday, enjoy us beating AVB’s mob and be glad to be a Gunner.
