Ipswich fans should be excited about JET

Jay Emmanuel-Thomas has always been one of my pet favourite Arsenal youth prospects. Perhaps it’s because he, like me, is left-footed. Perhaps it’s because I identify with his poor use of grammar and laziness. Or perhaps it’s simply because I have always been drawn to mercurial talents. I love a Grimandi, but I prefer an Arshavin – someone capable of real magic.
Jay Emmanuel-Thomas is one of those players. Don’t believe me? Look at this. Or this. He’s got all the ability in the world – but unfortunately, at the highest level, that isn’t enough. Arsene clearly feels he needs a move away to fulfill his potential, and so he’s joined Ipswich on a permanent deal.
Like Jay Emmanuel-Thomas, I’ve decided that a change is as good as a rest, and have decided to give Gunnerblog a lick of paint. There’s still plenty going on on that front, so don’t be too hasty in your judgements. Much as with Arsene’s squad rebuilding, a lot of work needs to be done between now and the start of the season.
Farewell JET. I leave you with this.
