Member of the Premier League ‘100 Membership’ and Arsenal fan Bent was so assured along with his aspect’s possibilities in Manchester that he placed a bet with an equally optimistic fellow talkSPORT Drive host Andy Goldstein.
Goldstein, a United fan, wagered that whichever aspect misplaced, the fan of that crew must put on the victor’s shirt on Monday’s present.
The truth is Goldstein was so assured mentioned Man United would ‘destroy’ Arsenal earlier than taking a dig on the Gunner’s perceived simple begin to the season.
“Arsenal have not likely been examined this season,” he mentioned. “You’re on the prime of the Premier League, don’t base that on something.
