With reports emerging from within the media of club captain Mikel Arteta signing a new one year contract extension, I have to ask the simple question – What purpose is served by the retention of his services? The argument I’ve heard from some supporters is that his experience is vital if we are to be […]
“Out of my huge respect for Mr. Wenger, the players and the fans I don’t want to go into any details, but unfortunately in this meeting it has again become clear to me that we in many aspects disagree on the way Arsenal FC should move forward. I’ve thought long and hard about it, but […]
