then he claimed he lost his blackberry and was someone else :lol:
Not really sure if anyone cares when he said.
I know I don't.
Wasn't exactly unprovoked because he was getting racist abuse, but yeah - it was pretty stupid of him. The amount of times where he was bragging about money was ridiculous.Quote:

Probably Charlies cousin
Petit in the Independent.
Quote:
"I asked myself what has become of the team that I knew.It's worse than I thought, they haven't recovered from the departures of (Cesc) Fabregas (to Barcelona) and (Samir) Nasri (to Manchester City)," Petit told www.sofoot.com.
"It's a gulf which is confirmed weekend after weekend.
"And what is perhaps the most worrying thing is the club won't do anything this summer to reverse the trend.
"They don't want to go back to overspending in the transfer market, and I think they're right. But for two seasons, the level of the team has only gone down."The Gunners went down 4-0 at the San Siro in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie in a performance branded "shocking" by manager Arsene Wenger.
Petit added: "The problem is that previously the club compensated for its lack of physical strength with Fabregas. With him, Arsenal were the most attractive team to watch in Europe behind Barcelona.
"There, in midfield, there isn't anything now, the defence is constantly under construction. It's fortunate that (Robin) van Persie is up front.
"Certain young players haven't done enough to justify the confidence that Arsene has in them. Walcott - somehow he's going to have to reach the next stage. It's been years that he's been at the same level.
"(Aaron) Ramsey, against Milan, I got the impression it was his (twin) brother on the pitch. In the way they behave, in their body language, we see they're not there anymore.
"We shouldn't hesitate to talk about the end of the cycle. Regardless of age, we have to look seriously at certain players. Right now.
"You have to send out a strong signal. You have to say to Arshavin, and to Rosicky: 'Gentlemen, thank you, but goodbye'. And soon."
Petit also cast doubt on whether Lille's Eden Hazard would be a suitable signing, claiming the club need more experienced players.
"I like him a lot but what has he done at a high level?" Petit said. "Has he been good in the Champions League? We haven't seen him. Has he been good for Belgium? He's sometimes even a substitute.
"What's needed is five or six players of real stature, great experience. Players who are 27 - 30 years old at most.
"Players with technical qualities, obviously, but also strong character. A group of guys who refuse to accept defeat, who inspire confidence in the rest of the team."

Sure it's another ex-player stating the obvious...but Petit doesn't sugar-coat it and singles out the same players we are. The British players that the media are generally scared to criticise - Ramsey and Walcott.
He's spot on tbh
Nothing new, Brits players are the worst culprit IMO. Rosicky and Arshavin do not play week in and week out, Ramsey and Walcott do. In fact, The former are better players but forced to do what they are not capable of (ie play in wider or deeper role etc).Quote:
