These clubs tried to destroy the league with big picture, remember they wanted a veto on the takeovers for the rest of the league. Man City acting as a black hole that sucks trophies away from them is the lords work as far as I’m concerned. Yea but they’re sucking the trophies from clubs like us as well.

Going to look at this result as a win win, dropped points for Arsenal would be hilarious and dropped points for Villa mean if we can go on an insane run then maybe just maybe we can catch them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 I never want Man City to win the league tbh, but this season I don't think anyone really deserves it and Arsenal, their manager, and snivelling bitch fans would be insufferable, so don't mind it this season.

Wolfcastle Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 20 minutes ago, Astroblack said: City are a despicable club. I actually feel for Wenger. He was building something and City came along and took Nasri, Toure, Clichy and Adebayor in one foul swoop. Totally unbalanced the league and now it’s one behemoth club guaranteed to get top four. Chelsea were easier to stomach because they at least earned top four 02-03. The clubs Wenger took those players from were building something until he steamed in. But in 02/03 despite being next in line, the next most regular CL qualifier and having a bigger ground than Arsenal there was no hope of passing either them or Man United. It was a closed shop that only Chelsea through Abramovic's money and City through their money prised open. Liverpool might never have gotten a look in had the dominance of Man United/Arsenal not been watered down by new competitors. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wenger was fine with spending a ton of money when it was only Man United that spent more. Signed a player on a free transfer. Give me a break. I think every team in Europe participated in ripping up the 95 Ajax team. Wenger got Toure from Beveren in Belgium, Clichy was academy iirc and Adebayor was 3 mil from Monaco. They spent reasonably. I remember when Jose Antonio Reyes was considered a massive signing for them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every club signs players. They just did it smart like getting Henry from Juve, Vieira from Milan, Pires from Metz. Pires for 6.5 in 2000.

We were also spending a decent amount at this time on crap. Shows how people will spout opinions as facts. Edited April 14 by El Prontonise Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 That first Wenger league winners was that most expensive squad at that time. But the second and especially the 3rd were not. The undefeated team might not have been most expensive 3 or 4 in the league iirc. That don’t happen again until Leicester. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
