But to be honest, from a strictly footballish point of view, Ljunberg leaving us is in my opinion the best solution. Freddie won't get many games as he wants, and at 29 he can still find one last exciting challenge in a top club. As for Arsenal, it'll allow us to get an effective winger, because let's be honest Freddie has been quite poor up till now and for about two seasons now.
We all need to move IMO, and the moment seems about right. And I'm not talking about financial matters, strictly about football matters.
Maybe you misunderstood me. I did say I was playing the devil's advocate. I wasn't saying I would like Ljunberg to take that stance. I was just throwing a counter argument to Shadow Moses' assertion that Arsenal and the fans' reaction to freddie's possible exit should be all about the money to be saved disregarding other things like his contribution and relationship with the club. I argued that if all that mattered was the money, and arsenal tried to ship him off in an undignified manner, then Freddie was well within his right to take the same stance and see out his contract.
My point being money should not be the biggest issue when trying to find a solution considering the long relationship between freddie and the club and the dignity of the player should be respected.
Yeah sorry I misunderstood you- Read too quickly .
I agree with you then- money shouldn't be the issue in this case.
