Sad, but I understand.
His departure left a gaping hole in our midfield, and in our club as a whole. What happens when the player that the entire team strategy is built around suddenly decides to leave? We went down like a stack of dominoes. Nasri left, Clichy left, RVP left. There was uncertainty over whether Wenger would even renew his contract back then. It was horrible. But somehow we endured it and moved on. Ramsey came back from his leg break and had a phenomenal season, we surprised the world and signed Mesut fucking Ozil, and our back 5 became more solid than it has been in a decade. Hell, even Flamini came back! We survived, moved on, and won a trophy.
Now he wants to come back? Now?! The timing couldn't have been worse. Had it been last summer, Wenger would've paid the extra 15+ mil Madrid wanted for Higuain and we'd have Cesc+Higuain as our summer signings. Instead we sorted our attacking midfield and now there's no place for him. On top of that, we really need to sign a defensive midfielder and a striker. There are other priorities.
Also, why Chelsea? No offense Antonnn (you're one of the good guys), but Chelsea fans have really latched onto the narrative Mourinho is crafting about Wenger. You know, specialist in failure, loser, etc. It's infuriating. Now he's going THERE? Once I see that pic of Cesc holding up a blue kit, I'll take a break from football for a few weeks...
Ah well, whatever he does will never erase what a massive player he was for us. What a fucking shame.
ya...that has got to hurt.
