Wright is now a gobshite who will say anything to be noticed and to be popular!

Remember when he left us he was happy to tell all and sundry that Wham was the club he had always wanted to play for?

Loved the guy in a red and white shirt but now I think he is a joke.

Must be working alongside that *word censored* Durham - Wright has become a joke over the last couple of years.

I have a theory about Wright that I will share with you.

In his pomp Ian Wright was a cult hero at Arsenal due to his fantastic goalscoring record, in your face attitude and also being the best player in what was often a very mediocre side.

This though was taken over very quickly with the arrivals of Bergkamp, Viera and Overmars and I reckon this gave him the right arse. He had played for Arsneal for years and now we had new heroes.

Also henry breaking his scoring record so quickly must have given him the hump big time as I bet he thought it would stand for years.

Basically Wright was a big fish in a small pond and hated the fact he had to become a smaller fish in a bigger pond!

I make you right Gus.

He was quality, a legend for us until the day he left.

But, I lost all respect for him when he sat next to Schmeichel punditing for the BBC.

Wrighty is no longer a player.

He's a pundit (where did that word come from, anyway?)

As a pundit, he is supposed to give a balanced and fair opinion. He can't say he hates Spurs. The bosses wouldn't like it. He'd be out of a job.

i disagree, confrontational radio is about polarized opinions saying you hate the **** would not lose him his job. lets face it the ginger twat hardly conceals his hate for The arsenal
