Lol @ all this hatred, all I said was United will never go the whole season unbeaten, which is true.
Also, yesterday's capitulation aside, we still gained a point on United. It wasn't actually that bad, United lost and we drew.
This whole 6 years without a trophy talk won't end even when we do win the carling cup, then it will become 6 years without a substantial trophy. If we win the FA cup it will become 7 years without a REAL trophy. If we win the prem it will be "they've never won the CL"
Arsenal are far from exciting to watch, they're frustrating at best looking for that final perfect pass which they don't find 9 times out of 10.
I was saying you've got them mixed up because of the "Not like Barca where you are forced to watch 10 minute build ups." Whereas I think it's the other way round, Barca will regularly look for the penetrating pass through to Villa/Messi but I feel that whenever I watch Arsenal they just pass it round the edge of the box looking for the perfect opportunity for 5 minutes.
that wasn't very coherent.
but yeah, I'd say most english teams do that. EPL has always been a more long ball game. I think arsenal is perfect, they move the ball around well, but will get in behind the defence too. Not like Barca where you are forced to watch 10 minute build ups.
^Barcelona only have to play at 50% each week because of how uncompetitive the league is. La Liga's a glorified SPL.

lmao, barcelona is 10000000x more fun to watch than the whole boring epl, barcelona playing at 50percent against atletico on saturday >> that boring chelsea v liverpool game on sunday, top english teams, yeah, they can't even pass the ball

Trust me you'd see a lot more teams playing the Barca style of football in the prem if the defenses and tactics were as bad across the league.

that and if EPL teams had good enough players to emulate Barcelona. Arsenal would be the team i would say is good enough but after seeing them get mauled by Barcelona last year, i don't think there is a team out there to do so. (Maybe UTD if Scholes/Giggs were 10 years younger)
I'm not talking about being as good as Barca I'm talking about their play style.
not any of that Messi getting hattricks against shit tier teams like Levante who give up the day before the game is even played shit.
lol i know that. Obviously, no team is as good as Barcelona right now. What i was trying to say was their playing style is something that no team in the EPL can copy because no one has a good enough squad to do so.
You do know that Levante was the only team other than Barcelona to beat (so far) Real Madrid this season right?
You do know that when "shit tier teams" play against Barcelona/Real Madrid that they're trying their best to beat them right? (Hercules v. Barcelona. Real Sociedad(9/18/10)/Levante v. Real Madrid)
EPL>>La Liga though.
^What exactly have Real done to make them the second best team in the world? I'd put them behind United, Chelsea and maybe even Inter personally.
