Hated the fact that he was thrown under the bus during those periods.
All the board members hid and pushed him to the front.
This is why a lot of fans turned on him.
Only one Arsene Wenger 🙏🏽❤️
My Nigerian (British) style education keeps failing me in North America. I used NB in an email and all the recipients were confused. I had to Google and screenshot that it was for emphasis. Context switching, please.

Arsenal have just won the premier league and may as well win the champions league. Wrote this in anticipation of the many victorie https://t.co/vlfvFwM8pV
A lot of new artists should revisit that era. The songwriting, melodies, restraint, and craftsmanship. There are still plenty of 202x hits hiding in those sonic blueprints. For example Rayce.
Hearing Last Forever from Johnny Drille’s new album Before The Morning Light sounding like a direct remake of Wande Coal’s Forever from the 2012 Solar Plexus compilation confirms what I have believed about the mid-2000s through early 2010s Afropop. They had some depth and magic.

Think DaVinci, Newton, Dickens, Achebe, etc.
Would we recognise or appreciate them or take it for granted cos we cen easily tweet "you be mumu man" at them without any friction?
Another genius level person I do not take my proximity to for granted is the artist? writer? @victorsozaboy.
