It was always going to happen. Such was the ferocity of the storm we've just been through, the
relative lack of activity afterwards makes it feel like there's very little going on.
In fact, the fact that there's very little going on makes it feels like there's nothing going
on. No rumours, although someone on Twitter yesterday asked me if it was true that we'd be buying
Hazard in January because he'd read something somewhere by someone.
At least, for me the season starts here. Thanks to the untimely (or timely, depending on your
perspective) event of a family wedding on the other side of Canada, I have quite literally missed
every second of the official start to Arsenal's season. The five matches that were played in August
is nearly the total of my missed games in the each of the last five seasons.
I loved Silvinho, and my good old friends at Arsenal Brasil have nabbed an interview which just
proves what a lovable little guy he was.
He talks about his time at Arsenal and more. Enjoy.
