GILBERTO TO CAPTAIN ARSENAL AGAINST PRAGUE
October 18, 2005
Ashley Cole, Sol Campbell, Fredrik Ljungberg and Aleksandr Hleb all miss out through injury, while Dennis Bergkamp’s fear of flying has kept him in London. However, captain Thierry Henry has provided a timely boost by returning to the substitutes’ bench. Gilberto skippers the side.
Well done Gilberto! Looks like the Gilberto-for-Captain campaign here at invisiblewall.net paid off. Well, that or everyone else is injured. Probably a mix of the two.
Gilberto will be Arsenal’s fourth captain this season – a sign of how depleted Arsenal are at the moment.
Come back later to see pictures of Gilberto with his captain armband on! It will be a proud moment for him.
