I just read that article by Steve Stammers.

It just goes to show that we never know what’s going on behind the scenes.

@cassiky

some people cope differently with tragedy, Sagna played but it took a toll on him, he even admitted that it affected his performances greatly.

Wenger probably didn’t want the same to happen, especially in goal where a mistake means conceding a goal.

do you guys really think that almunia was dropped because of his performances ok they were poor at the beginning of the season but name me 1 player that is left out for so long because of poor performances. Diaby is playing poor according to those foolish fans who keep on jumping on his back everytime he looses a ball but keep quiet when cesc looses the ball “FUNNY” aint it.

But anyways wenger wouldnt leave someone out for so long if they are performing poor, try and give some examples if you can, dont even mention eboue because he has been 1 of best players this season so far, and last season he played the next game after the wigan game at the emirates. wenger left almunia out because of the family issues all you have to is go back and look at almunia’s face and you will see there was something haunting him severely. Especially the man city game, give credit to him for coming and performing comfortably and well in the middle of a tough london derby and of course full credits to arsene wenger CLASSS AND GENTLEMANLY AS USUAL.

i wish we bougth all new players except cesc. especlially almunia and diaby. Im a 15 year old arsenalfan with alot of anger inside. and i know best. i know for a FACT that almunia and Diaby is crap anyway. I cannot see the arsenal games but i read it on forum and all the people i know that play cs09 says so and all the hobby managers i know that sit in their couch and moan says so. thats why it is true.

Sorry but i dont believe that excuse i dont see why the tragedy would not have been mentioned Sagna lost a family member and it was mentioned through out and he still played so did Cesc when he lost his granDad[i think] but it was all mentioned and they played if they felt they could
Almunia was dropped because of his performances period.

If it’s true then I feel very sorry for him. And what a gentleman Arsene Wenger is. I love his footballing and humanism philosophy.

If this is true then this shows once again the class of Arsene Wenger and his humanity.
