Arsenal and then Chelsea. Bah

The English football fans are funny. They would cry their lungs out on ho wArsenal is the best team and now they all jump on the bandwagon of Chelsea. It is more to do with hype.

It is very sad that the real truth is not known to most english fans about their teams

Dont mention barcelona and discuss this with proper debate if possible. Chelsea is a good team but way too hyped and not great by any means. As wasnt Arsenal and still isnt.

To be an awesome team the way Chelsea is potrayed, you should have won atleast a few league titles and played well for a longer period.

Arsenal was some thing which was jumping ont he bandwagon when people were comparing it with all time great teams. I thought better sense would prevail with Chelsea. At the beginning of the season every one was like Arsenal is unbeatable and now they say the same about Chelsea.

Its a lot of Hype****.

well i think a team that doesnt lose for 50 games can be regarded as one of the great teams

Nope, to be regarded as 'one of the great teams' you have to win in Europe.

bit harsh really...would anyone really consider Red Star Belgrade one of the all time great teams,despite them winning in the early 90's.

These days you dont even need to win your respective league to get through to the European Cup/Champions League

Why not when you're coming on here slagging off Chelsea for being hyped when they haven't won titles, and just last week you were saying that Barca were the best team in the world despite not having won a trophy for 6 years.

Yep. Amazing what wonders several hundred million £s can work.

I just hope that the Siberian peasantry are pleased that their gas & oil reserves have been transformed into a second-tier domestic trophy & a last-8 European place! :D
