The memories of going to Arsenal for the first time are some of the most special. I am of an age that The Emirates was my first in real-life experience of the club. The regretful pain that Highbury was never somewhere I got to experience will affect me for eternity.
However, it is people who make the place and despite Arsenal’s new ground’s struggles to generate the atmosphere, I have witnessed some truly brilliant moments in our modern cauldron of red and white. Fast forward to this season and Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal has begun to revitalise the connection between the players, performance and supporters in the stands.
The Emirates atmosphere has never been so electric. Part of what makes this club so special is when the noise from the fans echoes around and the chants for players past and present, the manager and the club get exponentially louder as more join in.
