I remember the sublime goals he scored against Man U, back to goal with Irwin behind him, one touch, and volleys the ball into the net. Was that not a BIG game? The goal he scored against Chelsea at higbury after 1 minute etc etc etc etc etc, I could go on but the problem is I'd be wasting my breath. Or How about When Arsenal were losing against Liverpool at Highbury in the unbeaten season and he beat the whole of the defence and socred. Were none of these aforementioned big games??? If ther weren't it doesn't say a lot about the opposition. Sunshine player my Arse!!! There you go you've pissed me off, you wouldn't let it lie!!! Or how about when we were 2 nil down against Villa at Highbury (season 2001 - 2 I think it was) and he scores in the final seconds for us to win 3 - 2. Give me strength. I'm starting to resort to my old ranting ways which I don't like. Try to balance your arguments before making such sweeping statements. "Sunshine Player" Indeed!!
