Good luck to him in his retirement what a player he was for whoever he played for and was probably unfairly treated at one stage when he was with Arsenal.
Will Arsenal win the league this year? It’s gong to go right down to the wire and their next few games will decide it. If they get past them they have it, surely? Hopefully they all come back injury free after the International break.
