    It's been a while since we had some good ArsenalFanTV and chill. That cheeky cunt Robbie even thought they would get a casual 3-0

    This recent crop of players turned managers needs to get on Ole and Zidanes(with ronaldo) level
    Comes a time when we all gotta die...even kings.

    Now arsenal can keep going on about their 12 drawer invincible season like its an achievement.

    Still got trophies we can win.

    Honestly, happy for Watford and their fans. There's no such thing as a bad Liverpool loss.

    It's not an achievement and yet no one else can do it.

    Arteta has been complete shite and needs to be sacked asap for us to start the revival. No point scraping costs when it comes to getting a good coach.

    Theres a lot of things that will likely never be done again because the standard is too high now. Theres no where near the level of feeder teams there once was when just being in the league alone is incredibly lucrative.

    Oh yeah right the "Premier League best league" "Premier League too good" argument. Back then Chelsea had just spent 100m compared to Arsenals 10m that summer, SAFs United side was dominant, compared to now we have Ole Gunnar Solskjær's making a fool of himself, Emery's Arsenal fighting relegation, Frank Lampard's Chelsea that can barely string two wins together. Saying the league is better now is just recency bias. Sheffield United came up and in season one they're joint 6th. You only want to think that the lower table teams are strong and more competitive because they have more money. But that doesn't mean anything because *everyone* has more money, so all teams are paying a premium for players and the quality overall is the same.

    Funny you mention chelsea, They only recently became relevant with a billionaire investor. Same with Man City. Compare those squads to the invincible season alone and thats without mentioning teams like watford or leicester.

    Back then even teams like newcastle could compete with one good striker.

    And that was still in the era of having a pint after every game. The professionalism now has gone through the roof. Which Wenger help introduce tbf

    We were regularly in Europe and had more European pedigree than Arsenal before Roman came in.
    Just because we weren't fighting for the title year in, year out doesn't mean we weren't relevant.

    Saying Chelsea wasn't relevant before Abramovich is completely false. They were always in the mix, and had a good run in the late 90s to early 00's winning trophies both domestic and European.

    A thoroughly deserved win, City looked toothless.
