Happy to nick a point from Villains but don’t write us off

A PPARENTLY there’s little point in a trip to the San Siro, nor schlepping up to the JJB this weekend, as according to much of the footballing media, we Gooners might as well throw the towel in!

Well personally I’m never happier than when everyone else is writing the Arsenal off.

Admittedly it was somewhat demoralising to be a goal behind at home to Villa on Saturday and to hear the news that 2-0 up at the Cottage, Man Utd had brought on Rooney and Ronaldo. Its hard to deny the evidence that on paper, the strength in depth of the squads of our two principal competitors sees them better equipped to cope with the relentless pressure of the run-in.
