Which Arsenal plane were you on?

A tale of two planes by Konstantin Mitov

Good afternoon fellow gooners! I will not speak of the Arsenal game. There is just no point of doing it as long as there is one man sitting on the bench. Clueless. I said it in an article before the game! We would not win! We’d be happy with a draw. Another defeat, this time it’s West Brom.

What’s the excuse? Pathetic really. I’m laughing as I’m writing this, but on the inside I am numb. I feel a slight pain and nothing else right now. It’s hard to be excited for Arsenal games as they have become stale, predictable, miserable. We’re dead. The top 4 is dead. Arsene is a dead man walking.

He’ll get the contract, but his new place in the league is somewhere between 5th – 7th. He refused to leave when the time was right and he’s paying the price. We are all paying the price and it’s not our fault. The away fans tried to support the team, but it’s difficult.

So there were 2 planes. One said “No contract #Wenger Out!”, the other said “In Arsene we trust #RespectAW”. Now which plane you are on does matter, and the two symbolize exactly what’s wrong with this football club.

I will start with the latter and I’d like to know by trusting Arsene, what exactly do you trust? The 5-1 hammerings from Bayern, the defeats against City, Liverpool, Watford, Chelsea or the recent one against WBA? We had a long break before Liverpool and we failed, we’re heading into another break and we’ll fail again.

Refusing to learn from what happened 10 years in a row, means we will repeat it again and again and again, until it becomes so painful, we learn the hard way. I don’t see anything disrespectful in “No contract, Wenger out.” It doesn’t abuse him it just calls for change, because the results are terrible.

Arsene is an employee here, he is not the football club. I support Arsenal FC and for the better of us, we must get rid of him. He talks about “taking us to the next level”, yet the next level means 6th or 7th I guess. The fact that there was a plane to support him was the latest joke. I’m sorry, but some of the fans are part of the problem and sadly it’s those who support Arsene.

There’s nothing that hasn’t been said already, but the results are there for everyone to see. It’s finished, Arsene is finished. Out of the top 4, out of the champions league. Humiliated once again, he will sign but what will it change?

It’s been here the entire time. The same movie every year with the same ending. Until all fans get on the same plane and we send him out, this is a sight you should get used to.
