What a romantic our Dane-y Boy is!
Yes! Nicklas Bendtner is actually following the club's 'Be a Gooner. Be a Giver.' cancer campaign. The young Dane has changed his jersey number 26 to 52. And, he is reimbursing any Gooner that bought a replica shirt adorned with No. 26 on the back.
But I am pretty confident those Gooners are not dying, whose last wish was to buy his jersey.
Bendtner is reportedly facing a £10,000 bill from Arsenal for his generosity. The average price of home replica shirt is £40. So, there are around 250 people (10,000/40) who actually bought original bendtner's jersey. I mean 250 people !!
For those who admire him...Where are you guys?...errr...Hello? anyone? Come on...you bought his jersey!
For those who hate him, I had told you! Stop moaning about him. You just lost a jersey.
Anyways, does doubling up the number (26x2=52) mean he is hoping to score 30 goals this season (15, overall last season?) Good, if he thinks like that. Awesome, if he will come any near to that figure.
But I like one thing about him: He keeps his head down and works for the team. He may not be a glamorous striker, but he wasn't bad last season (15 goals at the age 21) And he can perform much better. Lets all hope and dream!
"Bendtnerrrrrrrrrr and he is the top goal scorer of EPL 20010-11!"
Amen!
P.S. Anyone knows of any example of footballer with such a high jersey number. No-one comes to my mind.
