Wenger put together a team at a fraction of the cost of their main rivals, that has played the best football in the premiership this season. Even yesterday, Arsenal were much the better team for much of the game.

I see plenty of reasons to admire them and very few reasons to LOL at them. I suspect they will have the last LOL on Saturday when they tear Reading to pieces.

It is a fraction of the cost of their rivals, but some clubs have a bit more respect towards humanity and do not see the need of uprooting teenagers away from their families.

Agree totally. And his record for buying and selling is by fat the best in the UK, Europe even. In fact, it's hard to believe. A truely great manager!

What a bargain Henry only 10m in 1999

What a bargain Henry only 10m in 1999

I May be wrong but I believe he is still their 2nd highest transfer behind Wiltord.

From what I can gather:
Wiltord £13M
Henry £10.5M
Reyes £10.2M
Eduardo £8.5M

The Reyes deal had further installments to pay but milestones were never met

I think that doesnt detrack from the impact of the original statement one iota...but i get why you bring up the states.

ArsenaLOL indeed.

Still, they are going to tear Reading a new arsehole on Saturday, driving another nail into our coffin in the process.

Interesting that Man Utd have lost more games this season in the league (4 - Man City x2, Bolton, West Ham) than either Chelsea (3 - Man Utd, Arsenal, Aston Villa) or Arsenal (3 - Middlesbrough, Man Utd, Chelsea).

If your definition of good football is stringing several passes together without getting anywhere, then yeah, you're right. Several times have I seen them do those pretty one touch passes and I thought well, at least they're still in possession but they're not actually hurting the opposition.

How can i take a comment like this seriously from somebody who prefers to play a girls game (hockey) instead of football

and you believe that United (Pique, as an example, for one) and Chelsea (I'll throw a Mikel into the mix) don't do that?

Or Reading for that matter.

Yeah i'd be gutted if a top European side came and took my teenage son away and turned him into a world class player - absolutely gutted

or any team in the top flight, really. Modern game.

I'd like to think there's a safety net for those that don't make it. But they don't make it, so I don't really care.

Agreed, uprooting Mikel from his Norwegien roots was a travesty.

As you well know, the black vikings were the worst of the lot.

[jumpers for goalposts]

For all his tricks what did he produce on Sunday? Absolutely nothing other than tucking away a penalty. Still needs to do the business against the best teams to be considered a great player. That is why Henry can never be a great player.
