After 13 years, @Cesc4Official finally comes clean about who threw the pizza...😂🍕 pic.twitter.com/ALJZICs8tj— Sky Sports PL 👑 (@SkySportsPL) October 4, 2017
Is throwing pizza in a fight a cowardly thing to do? Absolutely. Do I blame our young friend Cesc for doing so? Absolutely not. What I do blame him for is not taking the credit immediately and I believe that drastically and unknowingly changed the fortunes of Arsenal, effects we are still seeing to this very day. First off, I can't blame Cesc for throwing a pizza in the middle of a fight especially when that fight involved the likes of Sol Campbell and Martin Keown. Everyone has to know their weight class and luckily for Cesc, he knew that was not to be his fight. You also can't be an absolute coward and just sit on the sidelines as well. A good artist uses the tools that he has around him and for the young spaniard the pizza was the brush that painted his masterpiece.
Where Cesc missed out on a lot of money and Arsenal missed on maintaining their legacy was not having him admit to throwing the pizza the moment after it happens. Arsenal are coming of the backs of being the invincibles.They will shortly go on to a very successful run to a Champions League final. The momentum was there to be pounced upon. Instead? They hide and refuse to be the villains chucking pizza at the throne like Donatello and Shredder. It cost them everything. They didn't realize then but the fall to mediocrity was upon them.
Just imagine the pizza based songs coming from the crowds, the merch that could have been sold, the spin off cartoons being made. Just imagine:

If that's not on the terraces by Sunday, I'll be shocked. You all can sort out the pun for Arsenal and the Turtles. I did my job
Arsenal would be rolling in the dough. For Cesc, he instantly becomes the new face of the club. The kid who lives and dies with pizza and the club. Before he was eventually sold back to Barcelona, Arsenal would have been FORCED to keep the pizza propelling prodigy at the club at any cost. Cesc stays with other stars joining and they are challenging for silverware to this day instead clawing at fourth place and the playoffs for the Champions League.
That one decision has now seen Cesc join London rivals Chelsea with his former boss reduced to fighting for his job every season while fighting against his seemingly broken stadium jacket. Can someone get the guy a function coat for crying out loud? He's been through enough already. Poor Arsene.
