    Agreed, and the disrespect in this forum towards the legend is appalling.

    It's true. Basically the team with the richer owner wins. Man City is going to be amazing in a few years just because they can spend as much as they want on any player in the world. All EPL teams are not this way and I have all the respect to those teams who win off good scouting and good coaching.

    Exactly and I have all the respect to teams like Arsenal.

    Also this may sound stupid because this is coming from a Real Madrid fan. I never said I like what we are doing. I don't like that we spend almost 40 mil. on a player who is injured 90% of the time(Robben) and I don't like that we have no players coming out our farm teams. Who's the last good player to come out of our farm, Raul and Guti?

    Every team has a losing stint, although I have to say our one has been lengthy. We have more than enough talent to win any trophy, we just don't have the leadership or the depth.

    And when will they have the leadership and depth? I don't see it in the near future.

    It could happen quite soon, if Wenger stops being retarded and buys in a captain, clearly it wouldn't be ideal, because captains normally have been at the club for a while, but it's better than having a captain who's 20. If Arsenal focus on 4th spot and either of the cups, they could do it, just about.

    Arsenal don't have the mental side of the game. If only there was a European Super League, they'd win it as they don't have to go to lesser teams who knock them off the park.

    True, we should focus on the Champions League this season. We come close every year.

    Yeah, we lose stupid points to "lower" teams. Lost to Fulham, Stoke, and Hull so far... :dunno:
