This is going to be a difficult few weeks for Arsenal fans. I’ve got to be prepared for a long, long summer.
It’s clear now that we won’t win the Premiership. I shouldn’t be surprised and I should be used to this sinking feeling by now. But as every pundit has repeated ad nauseam, we’ll never have a better opportunity to win the league. So I should just calm down, keep things in perspective and look forward to those lazy summer evenings enjoying a beer after a busy day at work. We’ve lost the league before in similar circumstances (crippling injury crisis, lack of leaders on the pitch, Wenger stubbornly not adding to the squad when we’re lacking in key areas), so I’m not heading into new territory.
