    that makes sense, when someone says to be 'it will be fun' I actually do not like it.

    The nuns used to make us drink those little bottles of milk which had often sat in the sun all morning.

    Milk has not passed my lips since I became adult enough to say 'no'.

    Add to all that the realistic likelihood of failling to make the top four again at the time the commercial deals are up for renewal and we could lose out on quite a bit of monies, if one assumes that monies are a factor in a club's ability to succeed on the pitch. Maybe a few years in mid-table and falling share price will persuade the wig-botherer that it is time to sell up, and some slaver state or corporate gangster will step in and bankroll us to glory.

    It’s all very weird A, from the season high of the Spurs victory it has kind of faded away so quickly, or faded back to bland reality as opposed to “faded away”.

    I know a lot has been written about the valiant brilliance of the United defeat and yes we deserve some credit for the performance but I am probably alone in my firm view that we fully deserved to lose that game, football is a game played at both ends of the pitch and we defended for all 3 goals like rank amateurs. Southampton then was abysmal and for all the good fortune some will claim was absent from the United game was there in spades on the south coast.

    Even Monty, our resident defend Wenger at all costs contributor, yesterday twice admitted the manager is failing in his most basic task of preparing and motivating the players. Yes ballsed it up in a nonsense drivel about Man City but the criticism was there.

    Still, there is January and the window of opportunity to try and improve things though the status quo will remain while Wenger remains.

    This problem goes further than nuns. As dairies were guarranteed sales to schools I suspect that the milk they delivered was not the freshest they had available to start with. To this day Ms A refuses to have anything milkier on her cereal than the dyed-white water in the red lid containers.

    Despite having to endure this off-milk torture not only at school but at home as well (the old, rancid milk would have to be drunk before the fresher stuff) I somehow survived into adulthood without a fear of the nutritious goodness of a liquid designed to make small cows double in weight every few weeks.

    whilst this shows a small shred of optimism, I have to ask "who the ****, of any decent quality, would sign up for The Arsenal right now?"

    I don’t appreciate the aggressive tone of your e-mail and given your professional background I am shocked. Let this be the proverbial shot across your bows.

    Now, no idea.

    I had a quick look the other night to see who we were going to sign and I am informed we will go again for Lemar though shrewdly we will offer less than before, we are going to sign Leon Goretzka despite him being wanted by others including United/Bayern/Barca and indeed a deal is struck at €35m for Steven N’Zonzi (the ex-Stoke and Blackburn player).

    Now I defy you to read and absorb the above and not accept that the future is rosy?


    p.s. N’Zonzi is actually quite / very good, the Stoke thing was merely for effect.
