Ian Wright has just about the perfect balance for the present-day audience: He absolutely loves his club team, but he loves the game and his country even more. I think that’s where so many pundits (as do fans in general - including myself) go wrong.
Club first for me, always. Respect Wright, real nice touch from him, but that tweet is always going to be controversial given his Arsenal connections. So it's sort of inevitable that he's going to receive stick.
Nothing wrong with him acknowledging our performance, fair play etc, but sometimes wording things a little differently wouldn't attract as much attention.
And speaking for myself only, I get a far bigger buzz from Spurs winning, than enjoying a general entertaining football moment that any team could provide.
In fact there's no comparison, not even close.
