Random Arsenal Shit (When it's not worth starting a thread)

It's cup final day!

So the headlines in the Daily Mail?

This is Manchester 'United'... but only TWO Red Devils are worthy of a spot in our combined XI after awful season. So, who are they?

To be fair, the cup final does make the #2 slot.

Jenks to start today would be amazing. Look at what scoring that goal against Norwich meant to him last week. What should have been a tame, meaningless goal on the last day of the season in a game we won at a canter, that was one of the purest celebrations I've seen in years. Pure joy. Great to find a connection with a player again. Definitely start him today. The guys that want to stay and build on this potential success need to central to what happens on that Wembley pitch, not a goodbye medal handed out for someone sodding off to a rival. Sagna wants to go to City? Then he deserves to be called a cunt because that's tribalism. That's what happens. Take the last big cash cow but soak up the criticism too, you can't have it both ways.

Jenkinson doesn't have the same ability yet but he can be solid and do well enough there today against Hull. He won't exactly be facing Ronaldo or Robben.

If the lesson we as fans have had to learn over the years through players jumping ship is that football is harsh, then footballers themselves shouldn't be exempt from that. Drop Sagna for the final. You don't want to stick around to build on this? Fair enough mate, sit on the bench, go on your hols and get your money later. As a fan, I don't want to see your smiling face with a medal walking round milking it up expecting tears from us before you leave. I'd rather see a real Arsenal boy, a guy would bust a gut to be out there living his dream - like myself - than just another millionaire footballer waving goodbye.

It's stupidity, not tribalism. We shouldn't be taking any chances especially when this is all based on speculation.

He didn't relate tribalism to Sagna starting or not. Read it again.

No thanks.

[Niall_Quinn]

No thanks.

That makes it a grand total of zero times you read it.

It's clear that Jenkinson loves Arsenal, and I love him because of that. But it would be wrong to start him on that basis alone. Jenks always has a mistake in him and we can't afford to concede any silly goals today. He also offers very little when attacking compared to Sagna who is probably the best crosser in our squad.

If Wenger benched Sagna for that reason he'd be cutting off his nose to spite his face.

And so ends our association with Nike. I hope the Puma era brings as much success.
