My money is on Arsenal 3-1 with Toure getting the 1st goal.</p> Man Utd will take their eye off the ball after Chelseas defeat yesterday.</p>
Is it... a) The multi-millionaire foreign chairman? b) The arrogant manager? c) The belief they have a divine right to the title? d) The fact that none of their fans have ever been to watch them play? e) The fact that the ruling bodies suck up to them about every little matter? f) The fact that they're on telly every sodding week? g) Players who think they can referee the game? Anything else?
RE: COME ON ARSENAL n LiVERPOOL Lets hope they both catch the bankrolled two and make it an interesting run in. Hate Chelsea but also hate Man U!
RE: COME ON ARSENAL n LiVERPOOL Agreed... Chelsea are no different to Man Utd, and I've despised them for much longer so it kinda sticks. Money dominates football these days, that's just the way it is. Buying the league is also nothing new, Blackburn did it ten years ago for around the same money as Chelsea spent on Essien. The Premiership has lost a lot of its appeal to me these days, the only team I consistently enjoy watching are Arsenal, and even that is lessened by the fact that they are now a foreign team playing in England. I can't think of any criticism that can be levelled at Chelsea that can't be levelled at Man Utd, and to a lesser extent a whole host of other clubs (Liverpool, Newcastle). It's jealousy if anything.
not talking about anyone personally but when Man U were winning everything they were the team to beat and everyone hated them for it, Chelsea were a UEFA cup team who most people didn't care about either way. Now they've started winning and Man U seem to be the people's champion because they have a shot at beating Chelsea, fickle people. Personally I'd rather Liverpool win because I must still be stuck in 1999 because I just don't like Manure, and Chelsea have bought success so obviously it's sickening. Liverpool for the title next year, I don't care much either way this year I hate them both but should be a good match later. For the record I don't like Arsenal either because of their lack of English players and the little fouls which they constantly get away with, they always try to play good, attacking football though.
I'm still stuck in 1990 hating Liverpool for the very same things! It's football, it's cyclical, and it will always be this way. It just looks like clubs are dominating for longer periods of time as the money increases.
RE: Is it... I'm confused are you talking about Chelsea or Man U because the same could be said about both of them.
