The booing of Arsenal's Emmanuel Eboue by a section of the fans during the team's 1-0 win over Wigan Athletic yesterday was nothing sort of disgraceful.
Eboue was a first half substitute for the injured Samir Nasri, but had to be replaced by Mikael Silvestre in the 90th minute after continuous barracking.
I admit Eboue had a poor game yesterday and his past history of diving and feigning injury hasn't endeared him to Arsenal supporters who, having paid a considerable sum of money to watch him play, feel entitled to state their point of view. Also this season, I've felt uneasy about the fickleness of modern football with the antics of Emmanuel Adebayor this summer.
However it's evident that this Arsenal team are going through a real topsy-turvy season at present, so how does booing our players going to help their confidence?
Eboue's treatment was embarrassing and despicable.
Wenger says Eboue will bounce back
PS: it was nice to see Eduardo yesterday. Can't wait until he returns....
