But I am pleased with the trajectory - sure I want us to win everything, but my first and most realistic hope - as it is with the Flames (whom I’m exponentially more invested in) is for the team to make the most of what it has at its disposal. People playing for their shirt, Jersey, sado masochistic outfit (think Dodgeball) is what gives me the most sustainable joy.

In this respect, Arsenal are moving in the right direction - there will be hiccoughs but that is to be expected following the magnitude of change and the relative youthfulness of the team. I can live with that.
Lol, all I'm saying is that it's been three games and we'll see what happens when they play someone decent. I have no idea how that's a conclusion you could only come to if you're a rival fan. It seems pretty rational.
