A Conversation Between Two Arsenal Fans

I'm tired of Wenger! please is it confirmed now that he has signed Arshavin? If he doesnt sign Arsha, then he has to go.

Go where? Thank God its not your decision to make. if them allow you, you go climb on top maggi cube oh! u wan make them sack am abi? the much i can confirm is that Arsha flew to london to meet with Wenger and probably do medical test too. Goals.com says he has signed but i dont trust them. it will become clearer by tomorrow morning. there is a great deal of confusion on the internet about it right now.

what do you mean thank God its not my decision its to make? are you not sick of the disappointments?

that one na JAMB question you dey ask, but its not his fault that Arshavin havent signed yet!

its his fault! he is more stubborn that a thousand he-goats put together

where is that coming from? what has come over you? you are beginning to have Chelsea fans mentality. lack of patience. its all about winning without just thinking that there are others in the competition who want to win too. once their team is down, they want the manager sacked or they will switch their support elsewhere. i have absolute trust in Wengers management. the team is going through a tough season. they will get back to form soon. its not Wengers fault i insist.

Seems like you are enjoying being 5th on the table with no trophy in 4 years and no prospect of one anytime soon. try it with any serious club and he's a gonar!

Any serious club like chelsea right?

Have i mentioned chelsea here since?

Nope but e be like say na there your heart dey now! i have been hearing some grumblings from them about sacking Scolari. since this their sacking madness started with the self-acclaimed 'special one', what have they acheived? instead the club is in disarray. those clubs you call serious are not the serious ones infact. the important thing here is that Wenger has the boards support and thank God its not a one man business. Arshavin's deal is confirmed now! i hope that this Arsha will solve your problem, calm you down and get you off Wenger's back.

But you know that chelsea...

Hold the thought first! did you say no prospect? guy abeg no vex me! where has your love and faith in this club gone to. the team has potential and i believe in them. try relax for Wenger abeg!

I hate that word potential when nothing is done by those who have it like your country Nigeriaokay no vex, replace it with any word you like and dont mention Arsenal along side Nigeria. meanwhile have you been watching the African Youth Championship in Rwanda?

Nope and i dont plan to! lets not get distracted from what we are talking about here

Arsenal? wetin be your beef with Arsenal these days self?

Lets call a spade a spade! Arsenal sucks this season. Wenger should never have let Hleb and Flamini leave. The team lacks cohesion and winning spirit. Thats the reality.

While calling a spade whatever you like, i think you should stop brooding over spilt milk. Hleb and Flamini are gone okay! move on bro! and its not Wengers style to hold on to players that feel like leaving. that much you know.

See your mouth! you dey think at all? why him no let Adebayor go Barca? letting him go wouldnt have caused as much damage as the absence of Flamini and Hleb are causing us now!

I agree with you on Adebayor. I wouldnt have missed him at all, like i'm missing hleb and Flamini. but let me remind you that this team you are accusing of lacking winning spirit have squared up successfully against Man U, Chelsea and Liverpool

Na them be the trophy? If you square up to them and cant make it to the top of the table and next seasons champions league, its then useless. They need that spirit both for the big and small teams.

I dont dispute some of your points but what do you want? to draw blood? or to stop supporting Arsenal? you know its not an option for you. you need to lift up your spirit and theirs too. the team needs everyones support not criticism.

dont get me wrong. i still love Arsenal but sometimes Wenger makes some really dumb and annoying decisions that cost us the whole season and leave us in despair.

oh boy! talk about despair. me i don weak! one of my guys tell me say if him wan heart attack, him go support arsenal. the ode say him no go visit me for hospital if i suffer from one. but guy this season, the team don fall my hand well well! them don mortgage all my bragging right! so i understand how you feel. i just dey try encourage myself.

A Man U fan looked at me one day and said that we should surrender cos our gun is not loaded this season. whatever he meant by that.

dont mind him. we are not failures. its only when we give up that we become failures. like Wenger said at the West Ham pre-match briefing 'our title dreams are still alive'

A great man said that 'failure is instructive. The person who really thinks, learns quite as much from his failures as from his successes' we will come out of this stronger if Wenger opens the door to some changes especially his signing policy. bring in some experienced players as well as young talents as usual. The combination is what has kept Man U going.

Man U? abeg leave them. i trust Wenger will make some changes soon. lets just hold our breath. abeg i need to run, make we meet for the Cardiff match if the snow will allow them to play it. No wahala.

Later mhen!

PS: I started writing this on monday night [2nd of Feb] after a conversation with a friend and thats where i got the idea from. i'm trying to improve my creative writing skills and I feel I can start from something I love

Since i wrote this Arsenal have signed Arshavin but awaitng FA's confirmation.

Please feel free to criticise it. It will help me improve.

FA has since confirmed the Arshavin deal. Lets pray that something happens
