About a year ago, my second full season as an Arsenal fan, I bought a Robin van Persie jersey. He was far and away the best player on the team and led the Premier League in goals scored, with an incredible 30 goals scored in 38 league games played. Then the Dutchman from Rotterdam "
zijn ziel verkocht" and committed the traitorous move of signing with rival Manchester United. My best Arsenal friend was so fed up he offered it up as kindling at a co-worker's campfire. In short order, the flames that engulfed that RVP jersey were "hoog van de toren blazen"!
On the other hand, I could not do that. Not that I didn't want too, but it just felt like burning money. Some time later, I was delighted to hear that Arsenal announced Jack Wilshere would be the new #10. I knew what I wanted to do, but have just now completed the task.
