Arsenal Fans are arrogant and deserve nothing. by Galen
Arsenal have definitely got the most arrogant Fans in Europe. Fans all of a sudden think that the players must sell their soul to the club while at the same time we think we are morally superior to other football clubs. Why should our players sell their soul to the club when we have shown no ambition of being a club that wants to be the best club in the world. Building a new stadium and filling it with average players doesn’t make us the best club in the world. Bayern built a new stadium and so did Juventus. But they understood that to be winners you need to buy winners.
Last night I was lucky enough to go to Anfield and yes that was an atmosphere. Liverpool have fallen so low but their fans have never abandoned their team. That is how you support your football club. At Arsenal we believe we are better than other football clubs. We have spectators coming to the Emirates and expecting Magic to happen. The least bad pass on the pitch and you start feeling the nervousness all over the stadium. Pure arrogance from the entire football club.
At Arsenal we are waiting for the big boys to come to the Emirates before we start supporting our team. When Bayern and Barcelona comes to town then the fans are all on point. When Spurs or Manchester come to town the fans are ready. But wait a minute? What about Swansea? What about Southampton? What about West Ham? Where is it written that we must beat this teams? The fans give the players nothing and so they deserve nothing. I rather we have 10,000 fans at the Emirates than having an extra 53,000 clowns in the stadium.
Look at Aston Villa. yes Aston Villa that team from Birmingham. They use to be one of the best teams in England challenging and winning European cups, which is something we have never done in our long history. Where are they now? Football changes and it is not the divine right of Arsenal football club to be at the top.
We act as if we are chosen race that is suppose to dominate world football. I don’t even want to talk about Wenger or Gazidis and Stan. They are clearly arrogant? Wait, we spend £15 million in the 2015/2016 season signing Cech and a reserve midfielder who is of mid table quality. That is a clear sign of arrogance. The manager and the board deserve all the critics they are getting but so do the fans.
You don’t select what games to sing and what games to be in CINEMA mode. If you don’t want to support the team just better stay at home and let 10,000 people do their jobs. Top teams support their clubs regardless of the situation. We boo our players more than any club I know.
RVP, Cesc, Nasri and Henry etc all left the club. They also have one thing in common. They all left and won proper trophies. Why should they be loyal to the club? Why should they stay and cope with the lack of ambition that runs in the entire club? Who’s next? Sanchez, Ozil, Cazorla ? They will get better wages, better support and more successes at about 7 better clubs than Arsenal.
Yes we pay the most expensive tickets. Yes we have spent about a Decade at our new stadium. Yes we do deserve better. But does that mean we boo the team at every opportunity? Does that mean we start singing only when we are losing? Does that mean we should stop acting like a 12th man on the pitch? Does that mean we should support our team only when the big boys come to town? I want everyone to remember that 3 points against Swansea and West ham is the same as 3 points against Manchester City.
What do we expect from Giroud and Welbeck really? One came for £10 mill and the other came for £16 million. Has Welbeck ever scored 10 league goals a season in his existence? Giroud has given all what a 10 mill player should.
The manager and the board needs to do more. Especially in terms of investments. But so do the fans. We have all been very very arrogant as a football club. I even hear fans saying that winning the 3rd FA cup on a row is not good enough. We went 10 years and couldn’t win a Carling cup. All of a sudden the FA cup is not good enough? We are a bunch of clowns and that includes me. A change in mentality is needed from top to bottom.
