Birthday blogging: Arsene’s texts, Koscielny’s singing, and a shiny new kit
1 comment June 16th, 2010
It’s my birthday. It’s my party, my blog, and I’ll cry if I want to. Fortunately for you all, I don’t want to, which should spare us all some embarrassment. Here are the headlines:
Walcott and Arsene exchange texts
Arsene:
“I’ve had a little text exchange with Theo and he will bounce back. In fact I think it will make him even more determined for next season. He is a very level-headed guy and very strong.”
I don’t know about you, but in my head that text went something like this:
“Hi m8. Soz about Capello – wtf?!?!? C u nxt c-son. Tmb, AWx”
Koscielny begs for Arsenal move
Koscielny’s agent Stephane Canard said:
“Laurent told the Lorient president and coach that he wants to move to Arsenal come what may.”
We haven’t heard of him and he’s mostly French but also a bit not. It’s a classic Arsene signing. A matter of time, I’d guess.
Arsenal have a new yellow away kit
It seems that every other Nike away kit will be a nice, traditional yellow one. Which is good. It’s certainly a lot better than the blue and white horrors we have to put up with in the intervening years. Next season’s effort is pretty tasty, and the forthcoming home kit also looks to be a visual treat.
Right, I’m off to celebrate my birthday with BBQ and cake. Not BBQ’d cake. That wouldn’t be good.
Oh, some fella called Cesc might be in action for Spain today. Liveblog here.
