Same goes for you Babatunde
Totally agree with you re chesney - why cant some *word censored* at the club pull some of these dickheads back into line instead of letting them mouth off at every opportunity ?
Amazingly fickle some of this stuff. I remember arguing with dozens of people on here just over a year ago when there was widespread clamour for him to be first choice on the back of a fucking loan spell at world beaters Brentford. I even labelled him Brentford's finest which received quite a few barbed responses from those going all gooey over a few reserve displays
Amazing how people get what they want and then backtrack

name names, mate.
I'm not quite so sad as to go back through every fucking post that was made on the subject but there are people piling into him now when he was a supposed hero a year ago. In fact people were getting scared he would leave the club and urging him to be first choice with a new conract on the back of having achieved nothing.

If you've got the time dig out the posts
I am sad enough, but I won't do your dirty work
Playing devil's advocate, I would say that perhaps the clamour was at least in some part because of the alternatives on offer, and the little faith in Wenger to buy an good, experienced replacement.

To be fair steve o, I think arseofacrow sums it up best when he quite correctly suggests that the clamour for and subsequent support of chesney is heavily influenced by the abysmal alternatives
On a personal level I accept that he is going to make mistakes so am willing to cut him slack over that but I am not willing to give him any slack over his gobbing off to the media or through social networks

Being the shit stirring kind if guy I am, I'm just going to light this firework and stand well back.
Bags of potential but needs competition otherwise will be able to turn in gash performance after gash performance without fear of being dropped as he has no competion.
He needs to desperately work on his rushng out and his claiming of high balls as both are shit.
Off topic but we have too may players who are guaranteed starters irrespective of performances.
