Ex Arsenal players you used to love, but now hate

hate is such a strong word so why we all just get along :D

so many ex arsenal players work in the media but paul merson is the biggest twat , of all the players still playing then cole,rvp and nasri i dislike the most, the ox is another asshole who i still cant believe we got 40mill for.
Why Merse?, he's certainly no genius but he is very critical of Wenger and the board, unlike a lot of ex-players..
just find him a clown tbh. he has no clue about anything .
weird to hate merson ,the guy isn't a genius but then he was a footballer,he hasn't a bad bone in his body and seems to be well liked in footballing circles,he dislikes wenger as mentioned and was a great player for us,hating seem seems like hate for the sake of it,now if you want someone to hate now its keown
The dislike or 'hate' against Merson, mainly comes from him saying he is a lifelong Chelsea fan. Anyone who plays for a club as long as he played for us, you'd expect him to have an affinity to us, but instead he makes it clear, he supports those *word censored*.

It would be nice if every player who played for us were Arsenal supporters born and bred but sadly local players are very rare now.

Gotta be Bergka- nah just fucking with ya! :D

Not sure I hate any of them... hate is a strong word... :rubchin:

But there's a few I have lost respect for or feel let down by... Keown is up there for his moronic AKB shite and flip-flopping. Bouldy a bit too for selling his soul as a sub-clause of Wenger's Deal with the Devil. I LOVED Merse as a player but then he "came out" as a die-hard lifelong chav fan and I was so disappointed in him. Fabregas too, bit of a prick for the whole "if you ever see me in a chav jersey strangle me" and then he fucking joined the chav, the little cocksucker... :roll: :censored:

Oh and I'm still embarrassed by Seamo's dancer / media whore post-playing career. He was a LEGEND for me, the strong silent tough as fuck keeper... and then it turned out he's a fucking giggling bimbo.... :oops: :oops:

Oh, actually I do fucking hate 2 ex-players that I once loved - Cashley A-Hole and Robbing VanJudasCunt. :censored: :twisted:
Don't get the Cesc hate. Okay, the whole Barca jersey thing and whatnot was not the best look. But the guy saw the writing on the wall and knew we weren't going anywhere. And when he was available post-Barca, Wenger had the FIRST option to take him back, and for some fucking reason, DECLINED to sign him because we had Ramsey Wilshire and Ozil. Cesc has proven that he was/is better than all 3 of them, being a large part of winning two titles in 3 years. I fucking hate Chelsea, but he was declined by Wenger and chose a CL squad in London.

One of the few that would dare criticise Wenker openly, saying what was wrong and that Arsene doesn't change and won't delegate probably 5/6 years ago ?

Can't agree with that mate.

As far as i recall, Robson was the very first ex player to criticise Wenger openly and i will always have huge respect for him becaise of that.

So many of them ride the gravy train and won't rock the boat. It's refreshing to hear Robson as he's never flip flopped.

Unlike Ian Wright who will crawl right back up Wenger's sphincter as soon as we beat anybody

True. Also he was soon taken off the Arsene Gravy Train List when he told it like it was. He knows his stuff tactically and without getting personal he used to dis-mantle the Arsenal games - especially those we lost with good knowledge and constructive criticism on how the team could have avoided the defeat/s.

Did he? I just remember watching him a couple of times and switched off. Don't even think it was anything to do with Arsenal.

100% wrong. Bergkamp himself has cleared that up. He was a fan of Hoddle but never the scum. The media made that up. Mate, learn your fucking history ffs. :roll: :wink:

I quote;
"My father was a Denis Law fan, not a Manchester United fan. And I wasn't a Tottenham fan; I was a Hoddle fan. My plan was always to come to England after Italy. I loved the passion, the crowds."

https://www.fourfourtwo.com/features/de ... mp-one-one

He was also linked to joining the scum before us and said; “Spurs was mentioned, and that had been Hoddle’s team, but even then I considered Arsenal to be a bit above Spurs.”

Don't get the Cesc hate. Okay, the whole Barca jersey thing and whatnot was not the best look. But the guy saw the writing on the wall and knew we weren't going anywhere. And when he was available post-Barca, Wenger had the FIRST option to take him back, and for some fucking reason, DECLINED to sign him because we had Ramsey Wilshire and Ozil.

Fuck sake do you ever actually read anything before you jump in? :roll: :lol: Where did I say I hate Fabregas? I implied I was "disappointed in him" just as I was disappointed to hear Merse was lifelong chav. :roll:

Also, in general, to everybody on here, I believe the question asked was "Ex Arsenal players you used to love, but now hate" not "Ex Arsenal players you hate but not if they have mouthed off about Wenger then they are cool no matter what else they have done". Can we have one fucking thread that isn't qualified ONLY by Wenger-hate for the living love of fucking fuck? WE GET IT. Most of us want Wenger gone. We have a Wenger thread, a Wenger protest thread, a Wenger protest money-raising thread! Fuck Wenger - I'm getting so bored out of my tiny fucking mind with every single thread, post, and comment being reduced down to "I hate Wenger". :roll:

Some fucker better post some tits on this thread quick or I'm deleting it! :lol: :wink:

I love all the Graham players and enjoy listening to them. Only player I hate is Ashley Cole because he is a c..t.
Nothing else to say on that one.
