So the deeply average Denilson, frankly I can't be arsed with his full Brazilian name, is to leave us and shock horror, he is not going to be joining Chelsea or Manchester United. He has spoken to the Sun and said a few rather silly things, he has also shown us that he is verging on the delusional.
Apparently Denilson is a 'winner' in his own words, how he has worked this out is not mentioned, several years distinctly average displays do not a winner make in my opinion. He is not useless, I do not intend to insult the lad, the problem is that he is simply not that good at anything. He is not very quick, he is poor in the air, he is very weak defensively, lethargic even, his passing is ok, his long range shot is decent, he is no dribbler. He just hasn't developed as many of us would have hoped, putting in bluntly Denilson just isn't good enough for Arsenal Football Club.
Chelsea and Manchester United, and even Spurs, would not want to touch Denilson with a proverbial barge pole, he is just not up to it and this has been clear for some time. The final straw appeared to be his half time withdrawal away at West Brom, but the signs had been there long before that, many of us wanted him shipped out well before that. There is no doubt that after 153 appearances for us he should be doing a lot more in games, he is consistently a weak link, opposition players walk past him as if he wasn't there, defending and attacking are not his strengths.
I hope this is the start of a proper spring clean at the club. There are several other players at the club who need to be sent packing. The whole squad need a kick up the arse, the complacency that we have seen at times this season needs to be stamped out ruthlessly and clearing the dead wood is a great way to start this process off. Farewell Denilson, I wish you well wherever you end up but fear that you will drift down the food chain from here, because frankly you aren't really that good.
