Essien's a Gooner!

Post by Gooner Chris »

Didn't see anyone post this :

CHELSEA star Michael Essien scores an embarrassing own goal – by being pictured in an Arsenal shirt.

The midfielder, 25, who earns £90,000 a week, was snapped in the top of his London rivals on a trip to his native Ghana.

Essien explained his Gunners gaffe saying: “The shirt is one I swapped with Emmanuel Adebayor after a game last season.

“I gave it to my pal Eric. A girl asked for a photo. I didn’t want to do it bare-chested – so Eric lent me the shirt.â€

I aint stupid, and i am certainly NOT very wealthy. At the end of the day my friend, that's how i feel. Somehow, i dont think you would go as far as to give gus poyet a bj for a million quid....but if thats how you feel, who am i to tell you what and what not to do for a million quid.
