Allow me to start by saying that for a long time, maybe more than I should have, I supported the lad as I always thought, or maybe hoped, that one day he would show again the form he did show when we reached the Champions League final.

But, things change. He’s had a terrible season and it would not make a lot of sense if we are to blame the boo-fans for that as he failed to make an impact way before that. The icing on the cake came with today’s red card, not harsh, not silly, not unfair, but plain stupid. For me, that has “I no longer care about the team and the supporters” written all over it.

I waited, waited and waited for Emmanuel to send a message to all those who were criticising him over and over again. He did, but just not the message I expected. You will not read any insults coming from me towards him as that’s not my style, but I’m very, very frustrated as I write this.

On a side note, I think Wenger made two mistakes today. The first one was to let Eboue on the pitch after the first yellow. Not because it was Eboue, any player should be replaced after such a stupid yellow. The second was not to ask his players to warm-up just like any other coach should be doing in case of sudden injuries. Bendtner had to wait those 5-6 minutes before coming in as he had to warm up properly.
