Why I’m just like Tomas Rosicky
Add comment October 18th, 2007
Both of us are extremely doubtful to play for Arsenal on Sunday because of “childhood problems”. Rosicky’s childhood problem was an inbalance in the muscle growth in his hamstrings. Mine were that I was a) fat and b) useless at football.
Rosicky and I aren’t the only players unlikely to face Bolton. Both Philippe Senderos and Robin van Persie have picked up injuries over the international break, and whilst the potential return of William Gallas would improve upon Senderos, replacing an in-form Van Persie could be far trickier.
Bolton are hardly in the best shape though, after yesterday sacking the quite frankly hideous “Little Sam”. As much as I would have enjoyed beating him, I’m hoping we can take advantage of their turmoil to dish out a proper thrashing.
Today, Arsenal’s long-awaited AGM will take place. Hopefully, some of the questions we’ve been asking ourselves for months will be answered: Will Stan Kroenke be there? What is the nature of his relationship with the board? Will there be an extension to the Lockdown Agreement? Will David Dein dare show his beaconesque face, and will Dein and Peter Hill-Wood face off in a long-awaited lightsabre duel? Answers to all of these (hopefully) tomorrow.
Finally, to anyone who wondered if Kerrea Gilberto would ever re-emerge from the wilderness: no, probably not.
