Its been barely
five minutes since Alex Hleb has left our football club and already
he has been seen kissing the Barcelona badge twice and has told the
press that Cesc Fabregas could join him at Barca soon, this coming
from a player who had his heart set on playing for Inter
Milan.
Hleb took three seasons to
work out it was too busy in London and as far as I know Hampstead
isn’t that loud?
Hleb has made himself look
like a fool in England in my opinion and something Gooners will
never forget. Hleb only really had one very good season at Arsenal.
He was good during the Champions League campaign that saw us reach
the final however last season was when everyone took note.
In his first few seasons,
he seemed intimidated playing along side Theirry Henry, and when
Henry wanted the ball, Hleb usually gave it. When Henry moved on,
Hleb become a little more confident and even shot a few times, does
this mean he has developed as a player or when Henry or Messi ask
for the ball, Hleb will give it again?
I personally think Arsenal
can live without Hleb easily. Hleb is not Henry, nor Vieira, nor
Pires, nor Bergkamp etc, he is not even half the players I have
just mentioned and the new kid Nasri seems to be a good player and
dubbed the next Zidane, which in itself is some mantle to fill.
If any Arsenal fans are worried about the absence of Hleb, I
urge them not to be, I was concerned when Henry and Vieira went but
we coped so well so I am convinced the same will be with Hleb.
