Yes, we certainly have the same unthinking, tribal mentality tearing society apart. It's bad here and absolutely bonkers in the States.

Excellent post Retro couldn't agree more. I'll give you a good example to me the best player of the Emirates era was Cesc he played brilliantly for us for 7 years then left to join his boyhood club and play alongside Messi and play under Guardiola who wouldn't do that? Then after 3 years in Barca they let him go.We had first option to buy him and he would have jumped at the chance to come back but Wenger the idiot turned it down.Then he joined Chelsea and won two leagues with them but our cult fans called him a traitor.What was he supposed to do retire when Wenger didn't take him back.Do West Ham fans call Rice a traitor?

Absolutely agree Ernie. Cesc was a fabulous player for us, playing in a side that wasn't worthy of his talent to be honest and dragging us along for years. He would have come back to us from Barca, but as you say, the stubborn old fool Wenger didn't want him back (I've a feeling that we had first refusal on him, but might be wrong). Why shouldn't he go to Chelsea or anywhere else in that case. As you say, we couldn't expect him to hang up his boots because the old clown didn't want him.

Agree, I was disappointed by it, no doubt, but I was more disappointed that Wenger didn't want him back.Ernie71 wrote: ↑Mon Sep 25, 2023 12:12 pmRetro Gunner wrote: ↑Sun Sep 24, 2023 10:09 amIf I go back 20-30 years and beyond, I genuinely used to think that we had the most sensible, honest and fair minded supporters of any I knew.

I have this dreadful suspicion (call it paranoia if you like) that when xhakaClive was leaving he spoke to zinchenko at length and handing him a flash stick containing extremely dodgy photo's and information on Arteta said something along the lines of: "I confer on you the title of 'Clive The Walking Clusterfuck', now go and do whatever you like, because with 'this' in your possession you shall never be dropped no matter how shit you play; unless injured "... and Lo and behold we were fucked up the arris by utter incompetence once again.

Exactly. His retarded fucking carry on at anfield was the moment that provoked our complete collapse last season. Fuck the stupid cùnt. They won that title in spite of Lobotomy Clive, not because of him.IW8Goalmachine wrote: ↑Mon Apr 15, 2024 7:35 amWho gives a fuck what he wins.Wengerballs wrote: ↑Sun Apr 14, 2024 9:48 pmHilarious.

Re: The Official (Lobotomy Clive) Xhakatard is FINALLY gone thread
He’s had three mangers and persistently been a liability; let’s just face facts, he’s a hindrance rather than a help.
He ‘looked good*’ in Germany prior us signing him and he’s now part of a German team that won the league, but all I know is that during his entire time in England he was nothing more
than a liability that was prone to the stupidest mistakes which cost us dearly.
*so we’re lead to believe.
