You wanna know??? Ask Ade!

Making a pitch here for the BBC putting Ade on air. You get to ask him the questions, so if you've been wondering: "why did you cut your hair?", "why did you stop scoring after your hair cut?", "what the heck was/is the deal with you and Nicklas?", "do you have a crush on Thierry?", "can you talk more slowly?", "can you feel your legs, them being so long and tentacle-y?", "how much more are you getting on your new deal?", "is that enough?", "are you leaving - yes or no, no in-between answers."

Since this is a slow day, I feel compelled to raise Diarra's little hit back at Le Boss. Two choice quotes:

"Why does he not move on? He speaks about me more than when I was there. It's a very strange one."

"Perhaps to lose one French international midfielder may be regarded as misfortune. To lose two looks like carelessness."

Ouch, says Mr Wenger. Oh well. Screw him, the whiner (Diarra, not Mr Wenger). He can't take broken promises looks like. Though I can't imagine what promises were made in the contract:

"Dear Lassana,

I hereby promise you no less than 1500 hours of first-team football, not counting the Carling Cup, for the rest of the season. Even if it means asking Mathieu to f-off to the reserves team, I shall do it. I hope you sign for us. I know you had a hard time at a top-notch team like Chelski, and you must believe us that you will play more at a slightly less top-notch team like Arse. Please, join us and you will play. Your place in EURO 2008 will not be put in jeopardy.

Yours sincerely (and I mean really sincerely),

Arsene"

Alrighty. The Arsewiper will be off for the next five days. Ain't sure whether he'll get any internet access where he's going. He may post some nice beach photos where he's going, but no "promises". He may also still hopefuly be able to keep in touch. Maybe by the time he comes back, we'd have sold the entire team, and bought 15 French players as replacement.
