13 – Arsenal League titles.
13 – Arsenal F.A. Cups.
12 – Years, the last time S&#rs won a trophy, beating Chel$ki 2-1.
3 – Years since The Arsenal beat Chel$ki for a trophy (2016/17 F.A. Cup)
2 – The number of times Arsenal won the title at White Hart Lane (1971, 2004).
Yeah, right, you f&%king wankers! – The number of times S*&rs won the title at Highbury/Emirates Stadium.
1 – The ranking of the greatest manager in Premier League history (hint: it ain’t Ferguson or Mourinho (gag!). Unai Emery? Correct! Joking aside, there will ever only be 1 Arsene Wenger.
1 – How many statues there should be of Arsene Wenger at the ground. But it should bigger than any other statue.
14 – Number of years I have been following Arsenal (since the Bergkamp testimonial match, July 2006, the one and only Arsenal “match” I have ever seen.
1014 – Number of times Arsenal opponents dropped a load in their shorts because Henry blew by them with a “caviar” pass from Bergkamp.
0 – Reasons why Santi Cazorla shouldn’t get a tribute at Emirates stadium asap.
wenger should have a statue but it shouldn’t be bigger than henry’s, adams’, or bergkamp’s. vieira should also have a statue. he and bergkamp won more trophies under wenger than anyone else.
i, too, love santi but he shouldn’t get a testimonial…gotta do ten years. with that, i suggested that emery should try and keep both santiago cazorla and ignacio monreal…two senior, spanish-speaking players to help with his transition. instead, he let cazorla go on a free and sold monreal for nachos (pun intended).
another thing i wouldn’t have done is sold van persie. i still would have bought giroud and podolski but the key would have been the purchase of cazorla…that might have changed rvp’s mind about leaving arsenal. mind you, this is not a retrospective view but one i had back then.
A statue of Arsene should certainly be erected outside the ground. I also think that a statue of Ian Wright should be erected. If you are in any doubt about that, read Tim Stillman’s piece on arseblog to understand what Wrighty meant to Gooners in the 90’s.
