Always the same, you never answer my question.This question is based on a false assumption. As if I've ever said we should be winning the title consistently. You frame this issue as if I, and other similar minded fans, expect the club to do so.
The key issue is suitably challenging for the title, something which is well within our grasp I am sure you agree, considering we're in the sane bracket, and yet it's something we haven't properly managed to do in a decade. In fact, the 07/08 season was the last time we breached the 80 point threshold. It's funny though, you laugh and minimize the efforts of teams who punch well above their weight by saying that there's little to no point in their achievements because they haven't won anything. So in your view, Atletico reaching the CL final and losing is no better than Arsenal being bundled out at the R16 state for the umpteenth time because neither team will have won it at the end of the day, which is laughable to say the least.
I could list examples of Sp**s last season, who finished on 86 points, Leicester the season before, who won the title, and Liverpool a couple of seasons before that, who came mighty close to winning it. But once again, challenging is of little consequence, right? You completely underestimate the effect it has. Actually, I'm wrong, you are aware of it, in your own weird and contradictory way. Not long ago you praised Sp**s fans for being behind and having the utmost belief in their manager Poch and essentially used them as an example for Arsenal fans to follow. Do you know why they're like that? I'll put in the most simplest terms possible. It's because they finished on 86 points the season before. Their tally from the previous season increased by 16 points. They actually showed signs of improvement.
You know what I think though? I think you dislike acknowledging the achievements of such teams because it demonstrates the stupidity of the other side of your argument.
The prime reason you fall back on money so often is because it allows you to absolve your daddy Arséne Wenger of any blame.
You're approach is vulgar and reductionist. As if there weren't other factors, outside of money, which determined finishing position, factors which I've gone over ad nauseam.
On the topic of unanswered questions. You STILL haven't answered my question. Because Steven Fletcher cost Sunderland more than Giroud cost Arsenal, is it safe to assume that Fletcher turned out the better player?
More waffle about Sp**s, Atletico, Champions League, Wenger being my daddy, being vulgar . . . none of which I asked you about.
When are you going to answer? I ask you again. And let's keep it simple. Forget my theory, what is your theory, if it's not to do with money, why have the richest three teams in England and the richest two teams in Spain won the league 12 out of the last 13 years in those domestic leagues. It's a simple enough question. Why won't you answer?
Without insults this time if you can manage it.
Oh and your big supporters @Deathstroke and @{reed}, feel free to help him out because he's struggling.
