Was talking to my bro the other day and he was like “I saw this interesting article on my Newsnow feed”…completely forgot about Newsnow. Feels as old as fucking teletext.
Used to be obsessed with updates on this in the days before Twitter became the place for the latest football updates / rumours.
Those fucking articles 'Big update on Arsenal star - “It’s time to…” - then you’d click the article and it would finish “work on my defensive game”. Ultimate clickbait shithousery.
Fuck, blast from the past that. Feel like a right old cunt now
God man I used to check that like a million times a day, was so invested in everything the club did and absolutely loved every shit link that website provided.
Sign of the times or maybe our downfall into mediocrity but honestly I don’t think I’ll ever have that desperate excitement towards the club again.
He’s rewriting his career. A speed merchant who played in a Villa side that had one or two good seasons and still finished outside of the top 4. There is no way - in this world or the next - that Arsenal were a sidewards step from Villa.
