Flamini's off
So the worst kept secret in football is out, Mathieu Flamini is off to play for Serie A giants AC Milan. Can't really say too much on this, apart from the fact the last couple of months you could tell Flamini was more than likely going to leave. I can't blame the Frenchman for leaving, he's going to a club steeped in history, there's great players there and he's being offered a trailerload of filthy lucre. My main concern is that Arsène Wenger let this happen. We had a perfectly good ready-made replacement in Lassana Diarra who left in January after only being at the club for four months. Wenger let him leave before Flamini tied himself down to the club? Wenger doesn't make many mistakes but this is one. Flamini would be worth in the region of about £12-15m and now he has left for absolutely nothing, to me that's a bloody joke in my opinion. This season he wasn't a bit part player he was one of the main reasons we were flying, Wenger even commented (although I do not agree with him) that the Cesc Fabregas and Mathieu Flamini partnership was the best since he has been manager - not quite Monsieur Wenger think you're forgetting about the Patrick Vieira - Manu Petit partnership. Any road up, I hope this doesn't come back to bite Wenger on the arse, but I still can't believe he let one decent player leave whilst another hadn't even decided his future. It isn't the first time this has happened, remember Edu leaving on a free? What we do know is The Arsenal will go on and no player is bigger than the club.
What do you think to The Flamster leaving? What do you think of The Arsenal's handling of this? If you have an opinion, jump on and leave your comments and enjoy: Flamini's off
