Gilberto visits local hospital

December 29, 2007

Gilberto has been spending his Christmas sitting on the bench for Arsenal. His efforts to break back into the Arsenal team haven’t yet come to fruition – but while he keeps working hard in training, he has taken some time out to visit the local Royal Free hospital. Here’s what The Camden New Journal said on the story:

Gunners stars drop in on Royal Free kids

ARSENAL football stars brought festive joy to the Royal Free Hospital during a ­surprise visit to the children’s ward.
Fresh off the field from scoring the ­winning goal against Chelsea, a triumphant William Gallas was accompanied by ­Mathieu Flamini, Alexander Hleb, Jens Lehmann, Emmanuel Adebayor and Gilberto to hand out presents to the star-struck kids.
Gallas, who lives in Hampstead said: “We have had a wonderful afternoon.
“It is not easy for children to be in ­hospital so it is ­important for us to come here and give them some happiness at Christmas time.
“It is very difficult for parents with ­children in hospital, too. I know this from personal experience because my son was born prematurely.
“I hope everyone enjoyed our visit.”

The story was originally published here: http://www.thecnj.co.uk/camden/2007/122707/news122707_19.html
– and it also features a photograph with Gilberto, Flamini and Adebayor with a kid in the hospital.

Well done to the boys at Arsenal (and especially Gilberto, who was no doubt the kiddies favourite player). Now get back to training, Bert, and get back into that Arsenal team!

My Merry Christmas wishes this year go to:
-You
-All Gilberto fans
-Gilberto
-All future Gilberto fans
-All non Gilberto fans
-All people who are not Gilberto
-Myself

I think that just about covers it.
