It is at the point in the story where Nicklas Bendtner has written off his Aston Martin - blowing the two left tyres and catapulting down a bank after approaching the London Colney exit of the A1 at 70mph - that you want to shake Arsene Wenger and, just for once, see some fury in the man.
The crash, as Andrea Bocelli's voice boomed out of the car's speakers on a bright Sunday morning in September 2009, was by no means Bendtner's fault.
He says another driver cut into his lane as they approached the exit.
