The Coming of Age…… by BG
The financial shackles no longer tend to dictate Arsenal’s transfer activity; although in previous seasons our main players have left in the search for bigger and better things, it’s also noted that the Arsenal FC was forced to play its hand in dire situations. It a different ball game now, with Mr. Wenger finding his lost appetite, after having to control his appetite season after season. Perhaps all those years of hunger has been replicated into Alexis Sanchez’s hunger to succeed….
The team is no longer boys trying to be men, they are men with grit; for we have Alexis to pressurize the opponent’s defense when not in possession, Coquelin to break the play in midfield and Koshielny to whack and swipe the opponents attackers. To be fair Alexis is a double edged sword at its best, sharp, versatile, a thing that will definitely cut through defences.
The media frenzy seems to be escalating and no matter who comes in or not, we are more than capable of challenging on all fronts come what may; they say consistency is key and now we have that – and the continuity of the players who are all there for each other.
Benzema, Lewandowski, Reus, Busquests for sure will add depth and dexterity to any squad; though for now the addition of Cech itself has put us leaps and bounds ahead. So let’s all wait for that to take its own course and focus on the Curtain Raiser on the 2nd August. If the last community shield was anything to go by, we will for sure be thrilled to see Wenger smack that arrogant Manager of a Club with lesser history.
This is the season and has been sometime coming now; the team comes of Age with Class and Precision. There is an aura that surrounds the Team and Fans this time around; and let us not be surprised if we have a season like the invincibles did.
To a Great Season Ahead; Cheers!! COYG…………
