The significance of being unbeaten?

[Chips&CurrySauce]

And the reason why you are defending this ludicrous term so vehemently Adam, is because you are the chief protagonist of its usage.

No, i don't defend a term - it's meagre, playful and not indicative of any level of intelligence. If it was, then i would be pretty ashamed at the level of ingenuity - hence it has always had a lighthearted association.

I actually disagree with the reaction shown to the term (it is only a word not worthy of thought and this level of writing - damn you Reggiepaul you've done it again! :wink: ), and the way you perhaps do not have such a belief that Arsène has Arsenal playing something special (which i will appreciate for a long, long time - i do not wish to reflect upon Ajax, this is the Arsenal team i support and its in this era). Although, i believe you are saying these things only in relation to the term.

Parlour Tron you are spot on. The fact is I have only ever seen this term 'Wengerball' used in this forum and whenever I read it I cringe with embarassement. People use it and they believe they are being intelligent but infact it displays a very symplistic and childish view on football and also a high degree of arrogance and ignorance. Although it isn't intentional it instantly dismisses all the other great teams, such as The dutch national side of the 70's, the great Ajax teams and many many more which have adopted the exact same style of football which Arsène also believes in.

This is all very true. I would have let sleeping dogs lie regarding the word but now it has been raised, I too believe it to be cringeworthy and embarassing. It is only used because some feel they look intellectual when using it, which is far from the truth.

Awful, but I did enjoy laughing at those using it.
