Mr. Agreeable
I'm not advocating for legend status but I also don't see the big fuss here. He's planning a career after his playing career and I don't fault him for that. He was a model pro throughout his stay with us. Really this is a big hooha over nothing.Legend for Chelsea. But for Arsenal? I have a feeling that he just used us. I never was happy with buying him. The only reason he joined our club was that he wanted to be in London and Chelsea was moving on. These are the types of players, a relegation team should buy. We needed players who either play for the badge or they are young and play at least for their own careers. Cech-like signings are the ones which make Arsenal look like a Vacation-spot or a retirement destination.
I still would have had some respect for him if he did not do that stunt before Europa finals. Do you feel what he did was right? How difficult is it to hold on any talks with Chelsea till the finals are over? Just shows the respect he has for our club.
