Three Words To Sum Up Manuel Almunia

With Manuel Almunia as number one choice, Arsenal will not win a trophy. It’s as simple as that really.

The Spanish keeper made another embarrassing mistake yesterday which helped West Brom earn a shock 3-2 victory at the Emirates stadium.

It seems to me that the majority of Arsenal fans wanted the club to sign either Mark Schwarzer or Shay Given, who were both linked with moves to the club. Arsene Wenger had other things in mind and decided not to sign a new keeper and I bet he is now regretting that decision.

I think it’s fair to say that Almunia is not good enough to play for Arsenal. A club like Arsenal deserve to have one of the best keepers in the world starting every week but at the moment they have a Championship standard keeper playing week in week out.
