Ian missed the boat slightly in terms of earning mega-money from football and has a well doccumented 'troubled' youth. What he said about SWP was looking out for him financially, no more no less.rigsby wrote:But it's not critcism is it? George Graham was on the radio yesterday and put it across that we needed to spend. It was well said, and he pointed out positives and negatives, while saying Wenger had to go into the amrket. Wrighty has come out with total nonsense.
That quotes about full backs is stupid, and to say 'Suarez shouldn't sign for Arsenal' is an idiotic thing to say as an ex-Arsenal man. It's the same thing he said to his son and look how that worked out.
He contradicts himself and its hyperbolic bollocks. By all means have a pop at Wenger and the lack of spending, but not in a manor that is ill thought out and quite disrespectful.
Yes, in hindsight it fucked his career but he will never have to work again in his life.
Honestly, club loyalty asided, why would you sign for Arsenal whilst we are where we are if other options are available? I'd cut my own teeth out if it meant a game for Arsenal but most professional footballers very rarely give a single fuck about the club the represent.
Just like if you worked for a bank, the council or a pub, you go where the money is. Modern life I'm afraid.
