Dear Captain.
I could have addressed this letter as Dear RVP or Dear Robin or
your full name, but, I chose just CAPTAIN. There is a reason behind it.
Captain, I've been an Arsenal fan since our defeat to Barcelona in UEFA
Champions League Final of 2006. So, my first arsenal game and I missed out on
the biggest trophy our team could get.
But
nevertheless, the spirit a ten men side showed made me a crazy arsenal
fan.
Now
to the reason I refer to you as captain was because in the 6 years I've
supported Arsenal- I've seen 5 different captains at the club. And before
taking up football I followed cricket- closely followed 7 Indian Cricket
Captains.
But, none really deserved to be addressed as CAPTAIN, just Captain as you do.
- Encouraging
Theo to get the best out of him throughout the season and particularly the
Spurs game.
- Handing
over MoTM to Sczcency.
- Kissing
Songs boot for the winning assist.
- Numerous
small gestures which evidently has made arsenal the most spirited side
football has witnessed in past few years.
- All
these apart from single handedly winning almost every other game for us.

Yes, there were amazing captains who were great leaders, but the pressure
of being a captain ruined their natural game; while, there have been great
sportsmen who were average to poor captains.
The best thing about this Arsenal captain, you my captain, is that
you have been an inspiring captain, true leader, amazing motivator and much
brilliant performer. The burden of Captaincy has not affected your game
slightest. In fact, it has helped others to attain their potential- every
manager’s dream.
Like millions of Arsenal supporters worldwide I wish you sign that
piece of paper- they call contract, as soon as possible. I'm not sure of others,
but, I'll not hate you even if you don't.
Dear Captain, I just wish you do it, we might get a CF a little poor or as good, but, never in my lifetime I'll see a better captain and a top player like you at Arsenal.
With loads of love,
Sincerely,
Gooner.
Gooner.
P.S.: I know Piers is funny. But, we all hate him as much as we
hate spurs. I promise to tweet you best jokes. Please don't consider him a
Gooner.
