@[email protected] Yeah, I don’t know where it’s suddenly come from. I think it’s easy to forget what he did for the club during his time. I don’t think he was the best defender, by all means, but he put in a shift when needed often.
I wondered if the criticism was similar to why Xhaka was criticised at times. He had some really bad moments, but he could have had a fairly average game, but he would often be used as a scapegoat for a poor result.
@nuggsy well said.
I think towards the end of the Wenger era the crowd needed a scapegoat to vent their frustration, Holding, Dhaka or Wenger himself. That kind of carried through until Arteta got the ball rolling again.
Holding didn’t deserve it and neither did Xhaka
Neither did Wenger. We just got unlucky with the stadium timing.
@Astrealix yeah, there is a certain class of Arsenal “supporter” that ill never forgive for the way they turned on Wenger.
