They never had a leg to stand on since they bribed their way in to the league.

The list would be quite long but you can start it with RVP,Cole and Fabegas.

They are ex-players.

Why how many players have you reduced to tears?

posted on 8/12/14

But FYI Emmanual Eboue!

posted on 8/12/14

Yeah, though it might be Eboue.

Yeah, wasn't very nice but was a frustrating time for us, coupled with his awful attitude no surprise it ended in tears for him.

posted on 8/12/14

It's actually quite surprising.

Reducing your own player to tears...I don't think I have seen anything like that before Brummie.

Play for or support Arsenal....Just leave your balls at the door

We all have our bad eggs I suppose but seeing a grown man reduced to tears I thought was bad!

posted on 8/12/14

Bad in what way?

Guys attitude was atrocious.

Can deal with poor ability, but not with that.

If you don't see what's bad about it, not much point in discussing it!

So you don't mind when your players have an awful attitude?

If you want an example of poor fan behaviour from Arsenal fans, use Gervinho instead.

Whilst it didn't come to actual booing, the reaction he got towards the end when he came on as a sub was pretty bad. You could feel the disappointment in the stands, and I'm sure he could too. No wonder he didn't have a shred of confidence at the end of his Arsenal career.

Chris. I like you as a poster. But this is absolute nonsense.

Gervinho had countless chances to prove himself to the manager and got far more game time than he deserved, yet he kept fluffing his lines. It had nothing to do with confidence and everything to do with not being good enough for us. His attitude at times was appalling. I remember in a few games he gave the ball away and made no attempt to track back, whilst throwing his hands in the air complaining.

He was very bitter after leaving as well.

Ah listen, Gervinho was such a terrible footballer, one of the very worst we've had in the past 10 years to play more than a handful of games.

I didn't think his attitude was that bad, though. Seemed to try his best, I was at a game where he came on as a sub when we were one down and immediately took a poor touch, slipped, and the ball went out of play - the groan from the fans was immense.

Appreciate that Serie A seems a far easier league for attackers to succeed in, but Gervinho still looks like a different player there, far more confident and assured now.

I think situations like that we could have done better with supporting our players, or at least directed our anger at the man who signed such a useless footballer.

Even if Winston Boagarde made a few cameo appearances before his contract ended, I don't think I'd boo him. Still love Torres, even though he was crap, and after 10 bad minutes his attitude would stink.

posted on 9/12/14

That's your view, KDB, and I get where you're coming from.

For me, though, for a professional footballer to take home tens of thousands of pounds per week but to pull on the shirt and turn up with a stinking attitude is pretty unforgiveable.

posted on 9/12/14

No matter how bad an attitude I think a player might have, I'd never boo them while they wear the Blue shirt.

I may not cheer them as I would other players - but boo certainly not - it puts a bad atmosphere in the ground that just permeates the whole club!

Booing - not for me thanks!
