Tomas Rosicky defends his reaction to Arsenal conceding goal against Sunderland
During http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429’s game with Sunderland, a number of the Gunners fans went on to show their disappointment with Tomas Rosicky and the way that he reacted when Sunderland were about to score their equalizing goal.
Just when http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wojciech-Szczesny-c36998, Rosicky was spotted smiling and walking away. Many believed the midfielder to be not to keen on the chances of his team keeping the ball out, while the others just didn’t appreciate
the attitude that the midfielder was showing n the pitch.
However, Rosicky has gone on to explain his actions, as he has admitted that his smile was more of a sarcastic one, since he was fed up with the brilliant goals that kept being scored against the North London team.
“That wasn’t a laugh – it was a desperate laugh that such a screamer would be scored again. I don’t have to turn around"
The midfielder then admitted that in the six years that he has spent with the team, he has never shown any slack in his attitude for the team, so it was kind of absurd for some fans to be thinking that he would change his ways now.
“When I see his face and he is celebrating, why should I turn around? I have been here six years and anyone who thinks I would laugh at that, for people to take it that way in frankly unbelievable.”
The midfielder then talked about the Premier League season and how Arsenal had not been performing half as good as they should be. The player admitted that the team got off to a bad start, but there is still a very high possibility to the team finishing
in the top four, as long as they don’t slip up in any of their upcoming games.
He continued: “It was a very difficult start for us but the season is very long and I don’t feel it is impossible for us [to finish in the top four].”
During the game against Sunderland, Rosicky was easily the best midfielder on the Arsenal squad. The player was working his socks off tracking back and was lethal every time he got forward. His contributions to the game were undoubtedly impressive and the
fact that many have gone on to target him, is kind of unbelievable.
Nonetheless, with the Czech international being a professional, he is more than likely to not take these comments seriously, as he focuses on maintaining the form that he is showing for the team.
