it is a possibility
that, when we were s**te (oh, all of ten weeks ago) GR was badgering Mr Wenger and saying that even his 3-yr-old niece could get into our first team?
Now that the reality is different GR may be reluctant to leave Wenger's Boys kicking their heels so his protestations of quality-poverty don't look so fraudulent?
Maybe GR is faced with this choice -
keep a working relationship with the 'best' coach in World Football by playing Kieran Gibbs
OR
pick a still-unfit Huckerby (who will be leaving in the summer) for a side that is looking at mid-table safety for this season.
I am not claiming that this IS the situ, but if it were I know I would do as Glenn did on Tuesday (though whether he will again on Sat is another matter, even with the slight matter of Dion's 'stiffness' coming into play)
eOh
