This. He believed his later years were better than his earlier years and I totally agree. 2005 to 2015 were incredible years, when he was not only fighting the wealth of United, but now the oil money of Chelsea and City with so much less money, yet he still achieved top 4 every year. It was absolutely remarkable stuff.Was a really good article, his Biography came out today and ive got it ordered. Always wanted to see what he was really thinking when AFTV was hounding him out to get some Youtube views and sell some bs merchandise. Plus what it was like trying to get Merson/Adams to not drink the night before a game.
Arsène is a legend, who has one of the best skills possible... Common sense.
That whole BBC article makes complete sense. Even the Throw In discussion. Weirdly something that really annoys me with Arsenal, we seem really crap at them... so slow, and nobody makes space. I know its an odd thing, but the more I notice it the more it annoys me.
Since the Premiership was founded in 92' the 28 titles are United 13, Chelsea 5, City 4, Arsenal 3, Liverpool 1, Leicester 1, Blackburn Rovers 1.
Throw in 7 FA Cups and Arsenal are very much the outliers here, United, City and Chelsea outspending them by over a factor of 10, other clubs stunned out of existence. That was down to Wenger.
The ravings of AFTV and all the idiots they sucked in simply ruined the last two years of a footballing genius.
