Do we need Henry or Do we have Harry

As the season grows by, the challenge grows for the kids in Ashburton Grove. Overcoming the condemning eyes of all, the team has grown from strength to strength. First, winning 2 cups in preseason and then keeping an unbeaten streak while on the way to the top of the table.Using a comparison to the magical world of Harry Potter, like the kids at Hogwarts, our kids lost their star. What Albus Dumbledore meant and signifies to the school of Hogwarts was what Thierry Henry meant to Arsenal Football Club. With a flick of his wand, Albus always conjures something out of nothing. Similarly, with a flick of his boots, Henry commanded the field with such majestic fare that leaves all in awe. The death of Dumbledore mirrors similarly to the departure of the King at Ashburton. The sense of doom and despair surrounded the Emirates Stadium like a crowd of Dementors camping in Hogwarts.As the saying goes, for every cloud there is a silver lining. Enter Cesc Fabregas! The Gunner’s answer to Harry Potter. The boy genius is the fulcrum of the new team that Arsenal is building. Fabregas gives hope to his teammates with his leadership and vision on the pitch. Like Harry, he is being pushed into the limelight at a tender age. With his raw talent and charisma, he is leading the team from the center of the park. He grows in confidence with every incisive pass and every goal scored build the growing belief that he is indeed the answer; just like every adventure and experience that Harry survives and increases his magical arsenal. With 6 goals in our excellent unbeaten start to the season, is Fabregas the finished product to lead us on? Is he the boy wonder like Harry? I can hardly wait to see him bringing us to the title this season! Go Gunners!

Do we really need to buy?

The Gunners have always been prudent in our spending and although there are many rumours that Wenger hands are tied when it comes to purchasing quality players, Le Boss has always insisted that he will not spend unwisely.
From the start of the departure of star striker Henry right up to the start of the season, half the world has written Arsenal’s chances off this season. However, 2 pre-season tournament wins and the unbeaten run continuing with last Sunday impressive victory over Portsmouth (with 10 men!) have convinced many doubters about the quality of Wenger’s vision. At the end of last Sunday’s match, the stadium rose to acknowledge the victory with a great sense of pride. For the first time in a long time, we can see and feel the swagger of the outrageous young squad.

Against a very handy team, the young side built with less than £30m had dominated the first half and when the game took a wrong turn for them, they adapted, adjusted and rose to the challenge. It was the perfect antidote to the speculation in the press during the week of all the behind the scenes machinations following David Dein selling out his Arsenal shares to a Russian investor.

Dein has always maintained that Wenger needs to spend in order to keep up with the rest of the EPL. As much as I believe that Dein is an Arsenal guy through and through, I have been thinking that Dein likes to have his cake and also eat it. He wants to keep his share of power, share of money and still be loved by the Arsenal faithful for his role in developing Arsenal.

Anyway, do we need to buy the ‘star’ players in order to stay ahead? I think the past few years together have built up the team spirit among the ‘kids’. We have seen so many changes and so much loss in experience that it is frightening to even imagine. Yet, on the other hand, the influx of young and guts under the harshest critics seem to have galvanized the players into a team.

The loss of the free-scoring ex-captain worked in a magical way for us as it gave chances to Toure, Gilberto and even Gallas to lead the young ones. Fabregas has truly excelled in his play, easily topping polls as the Gunners’ player of the month with 3 goals and even more assists.

With more youngsters coming through the ranks, Le Boss last words seemed as thoughtful as it can be as he declared, “Why buy when we can make stars out of potential?”
