Arsenal kit suits him I think.
Alexis wasn't treated badly at all. He just didn't fit in with a system meant to get the best out of Messi. Udinese built their team around him and Arsenal will too. Plus the Premier League is much more open ended and counter-attack prone. He'll find more space to attack and produce moments of magic.
Maybe you can start supporting Arsenal as your EPL club? That way you could still support Alexis?
Edit: I don't say this to mock you by the way.
You're degrading Mascherano by putting his face in replacement of a piece of scum. Nothing about politics, just thought maybe you should know. It is an insult, not a compliment.
We don't like great players, we like the best players. Alexis' workrate has been brilliant but he would never unveil 100% of his potential with us.Stoichkov (ex-Barça) “It's because of some people on the board that we had to sell the best player (Alexis) that we have at Barça.” [efe]
Stoichkov: “Barça's policy (politics) has always been like that. They don't like the great players.”
Stoichkov: “Alexis was the best player for speed, fighting for balls, playing for the team. He left with his head high.”
Don't really agree with him, but Alexis was and is indeed a great player. Im sure he'll showcase his talent for Arsenal where he'll get more space and a bigger role to work with(If Wenger doesn't mess up).

View it as an insult then, i don't care one bit. you must obviously have had a hard time dealing with all the che merchandizing a few years back
And for the record, history & politics is pretty much "my field"
I've got a long post incoming sometime later dedicated to Alexis to console those who loved him most (serghei, Trickykid, and co.)
