Happy St Totteringham's day everyone unless by some miracle the spuds score over 26 goals in their next 3 games and we score none. Congrats to Chelsea.

Question.

Are Chelsea better than us or is it just Mourinho is better than Wenger?

{Ed025's Note - they had a better side at the start of the season dags..

04 May 2015 07:22:44
When a club has had ten years buying at Harrods whilst another has been buying at Aldi there will not be parity in players.

Whilst Mourinho has had one over on Wenger because of this then only over the coming years will we know if it's the real thing.

Would this Mourinho or previous Mourinho Chelsea's have gone 13 unbeaten against the Invincibles, a team with parity.

Not a chance. The same goes for Fergie. Would he have 20 titles if Abramovich had purchased Arsenal. Not a chance.

Some respect for our manager and his ability and achievements is at times sadly lacking.

04 May 2015 08:00:57
Ed,

I think they have been better than us the whole season.

Maybe not as entertaining, but certainly more methodical.

As they say, "job done".

04 May 2015 10:05:18
That's an excellent question Dags, a bit uncomfortable but excellent all the same.
Their head to head records show mourinho to be the better tactition and motivator to date and I think next season with both sides having a great base to build on and both able to spend within limits will tell us if Arsene can finally out smart and out score his arch rival

I am with you Red - wenger should get more recognition

I congratulate Roman for steering Chelsea to another title in a short space of time due to his vast wealth but I have to recognise The Special one as they do seem to be far more successful under him as a club so he is doing something right although not always how the general public would like the game played or sky subscribers ( who need to be kept happy or the house of cards fall - hence we all can't play like that ) plus a few unplesant characters in the Team
Well done Chelsea and here's to us pushing you to the last game of next season and hopefully lifting the trophy that the club, Manager, players and fans deserve

04 May 2015 10:11:35
Dags just re read my post and the last line was not aimed at your good self. :-)

04 May 2015 12:08:35
Red,

I never took it any other way mate :-)

04 May 2015 13:08:37
Anyone that can win the champions league with inter Milan must have something about him. I believe any team he joins he improves them. Debate over boring etc is still out but he will always do a job

03 May 2015 20:53:57
Anyone seen CTR? Where is he when you want him.
I guess he must be checking on whether he can return his European road Atlas for a full refund if its not used within the trading standards 365 day cooling off period.

{Ed025's Note - good stuff G62..

04 May 2015 08:41:11
g62,

Not even sure why you bother mate, in the Fergie era he did nothing but attempt to take the rip out of Arsenal.

Post Fergie he and the rest have struggled with mediocrity and he hates, as I said, that we are looking way more of a team than United despite his protestations.

He is clinging to the hope as all United fans are, that they will return to past glories.

Maybe the will, maybe they won't, personally I could care less but learning some humility never hurt anyone.

Isn't there an old saying about being nice to people on the way up because you'll meet them again on your way down.

His post I copied from the United page last week shows exactly the guy he is mate.

03 May 2015 18:59:42
I said a while ago the league misses fergie. I don't see any manager right now In the prem that can topple him. Fergie and howard webb would of had a proper go.

03 May 2015 19:43:35
I meant to put topple jose

03 May 2015 22:45:19
I fear you could be correct mate.

Love him or loathe him, he is a cut above any other manager in the prem.

03 May 2015 16:25:51
Congrats to Chelsea FC!

They played awesome in the first half of the season. Second half they parked the bus.

I don't really like the way but full credits to them and Jose! He really knows how to win. :)

03 May 2015 14:35:44
Good to see Special One playing for one nil with 45 to go at home in their crowning game.

Win it with style? no way Jose 😊

03 May 2015 15:39:52
Sy4 forget about them,they will never be remembered for their title win
The Russian will get fed up with his negative football

{Ed025's Note - dont be so bitter...how about congratulations for being the best team this season?...the league does not lie mate..

03 May 2015 15:54:37
My opinion ed

{Ed025's Note - i see that mate..but it does make you sound bitter and shallow..

03 May 2015 15:56:17
He got fed up before he will get fed up again. I have no doubt about that. Not saying that is right or wrong though If he does pull the trigger

03 May 2015 16:05:11
Not me ed,I'm the most mellow dude on here
Just ask my bong

{Ed025's Note - then show it mate...take a couple of sharp puffs and congratulate them fella..

03 May 2015 16:14:06
Ok ed I'll light it up and take a few tugs too Jose and to you

{Ed025's Note - nice one mate..

03 May 2015 17:36:13
Oh ffs, they play the dullest football, yet have the best squad in the league. It's criminal. Real
Madrid hated it, and chelsea will get fed up again. Even last year they were just awfully boring

03 May 2015 17:38:09
Obviously Malaga wasn't an avid arsenal fan when George graham was around or he's just very bitter & very envious, we had to get the job done today mate palace are no pushovers yet we still won & deservedly so, only a minority that doesn't appreciate what it takes too win the premier league these days, every game is difficult so every point is precious. We gained points in the games arsenal, city & united didn't it's as simple as that, I'm sure arsenal will play like that at some point next season if they want to challenge for top spot

Sad news about Rio's wife.

Deepest sympathies.

03 May 2015 08:27:56
Yeah awful, very sad indeed.

03 May 2015 11:45:04
Terrible thing to lose a mother of such young kids as well, it makes me very sad

03 May 2015 13:34:40
I wonder if he has played his last game now. I feel for him my nan went for same way at a young age. Rio is for me the best defender we have ever had for England. Great on the ball. Fast. Strong and could tackle

03 May 2015 14:31:59
Thoughts with Rio
