The trick is to watch Arsenal from an entertainment perspective.I'm an Arsenal fan but wish I weren't. It's really not very rewarding being a Spanish Arsenal fan. For one everyone tells you how weird you are, and if they are Madridistas they tell you that you are a fan of the English Atléti, who's never won a european cup. When we hired Em*ry after Wenger I honestly would've switched to another team if it were possible. Sadly, it wasn't. Addictions / fanaticisms of 30 years, from the age of 5-6, you just can't change. :/
Not even rewarding in terms of watching us here on my own soil, either, now that I think of it. Seen Arsenal twice here, once in Camp Nou in 2011 when RvP was sent off on that bullshit, and then the UEFA semifinal against Atléti when we went out. Wasn't in the country when Henry did that goal in the Bernabéu. Typical.
Arsenal fan since 1998. I guess looking back I was more of an Arsène Wenger fan.
Now that we've lost our identity as a club instead of feeling sorry for yourself, just enjoy the quality banter that comes with being an Arsenal fan.
