Yesterday, a little bit more detail about Chelsea and Man U’s debts has been revealed in the Guardian; it turns out that this year’s Champions League finalists collectively owe £1.5bn. The funny part of the story is Chelsea’s insistence (through Peter Kenyon’s rabid drivelings) that they don’t have any debt. Oops, I mean “outside debt.”
In a rather Orwellian manner, Chelsea are claiming that they have no debt because, as...

Recently, I had a very feisty argument with a friend. He is a German and his favorite club is Bayern Munich. In England, his favorite club is actually Arsenal. But he essentially told me that Arsenal are a team of pussies and we will never win anything with this set of players. I obviously disagreed and we had quite an argument. He put forward some scenarios to illustrate his point
1. Gerrard converts penalty against Arsenal in the CL. Ballack converts penalty against ManU in the league. Ronaldo converts penalty on the final day at Wigan. When the stakes are so high, which Arsenal player...

Well, the season is over, we failed to win any hardware and we all suffered severe anxiety attacks when leading the EPL for three quarters of the season, anger when we were trounced in the Carling and FA Cups, depression when we lost to Manu and Chelsea and total dementia when we were finally eliminated from both the CL and EPL competitions.
We lost Flamini and the Internet has been deluged by numerous reports indicating Arsenal is in mortal danger of losing Hleb, Ade, Gilberto and even Fabregas. Arsene for once has taken a surprisingingly, acerbic, firm stance, uttered that all the...

Like most others on this site, I have been frustrated by the frugality of our favorite club and manager. Once when my frustration reached a boil, I posted an article here suggesting that the present board members were cheap and wanted to keep as much money in their pockets as possible so, by contrast, to the other big English teams, Arsenal never bought established and expensive stars.
Now, with the transfer window about to open and with news that Flamini has left Arsenal for Milan for what appears to be purely financial reasons as well as rumors that Hleb would be leaving for Inter...
