A nice turn of phrase from Chinese Arsenal fans

Posted on 03:30 by Unknown
North London football side Arsenal are touring China this week, and played a 1-1 draw with Hangzhou Greentown. A backdrop to the match is the long-running transfer saga in which superclub Barcelona are trying to sign Arsenal's star playmaker and captain Cesc Fabregas, yet are going about it in a devious fashion. They keep offering far less money than he is worth, while constantly making overtures to him in the media aimed at unsettling Cesc and having him force the issue with his club.
So I couldn't help but laugh at this banner created by some of Arsenal's Chinese fans, which sums up the thoughts of Arsenal fans everywhere with some slightly odd English which makes just that much cooler.
