Do you really have to ask that?

The amount of stick the Arsenal fans give to Adebayor and Nasri is at least as bad as what we give to our former players.

Actually when you boo a player it inspires them to do better when they are the opposition, thats what many players who I have met over the years have said to me. To them it means they are well known and they mean something to you.

Do you agree with that ?

After the abuse city fans gave him I do not blame him for celebrating This is a kid who supported us and travel to city from a young age and was with the club from the age of 9 he is a true city fan and fans abuse him


I agree with you, Gunter has probably not helped himself but if I remember rightly the first time he played against us it was the city fans booing him for no reason

i only booed him after the challenge on Whitts a couple of years ago and after the gesture he made. Never booed him since sometimes i give a kneejerk reaction of booing players (e.g. when i booed Chopra for scoring against us, dont why i did, just did) but imo they're are clubs who are much worse when it comes to how they treat formal players... Arsenal being one.
