Dr Cosmos…you are missing the point so astoundingly.
As an Arsenal fan, I supported Chelsea against Bayern, Supported Liverpool every time cos I liked them…I dislike United a lot so I never supported them. (So this isn’t a matter of who you support)
Most of the banter against Arsenal on the other hand isn’t just banter…it’s systemic hate.
Systemic hate is what makes all rivals of all other teams (emphasis on ALL)…say the premier league has no value cos Arsenal has won it.
Systemic hate is what makes media call Arteta trophyless for 6 years despite winning two community shields in that period…
Systemic hate is what makes media say Pep won 20 trophies(three shields) Klopp won 6 or so(one community shield) but when you ask how many has Arteta won…they tell you two.
Systemic hate is what makes rivals say “we hate Arsenal cos of the fans” when in reality their fans are way worse.
Systemic hate is what makes the media bring out table of premier league if set pieces didn’t count…
Systemic hate is what makes the media post “only” 10 premier league winners with less points than 85(after Arsenal won)
Liverpool won with less points last year, I dare you to find me a post from any media about the teams who scored less than 84 points.
In conclusion Dr, Arsenal fans are and have been fighting systemic hate not only from rivals, but also media(particularly the media which doesn’t even hide the hate anymore). They drive the narrative by the way.
It’s clear that it’s much more than banter sir…we don’t have a problem with the banter. We have always been victims of it…but please let’s be accurate with our description of what exactly is going on.
@footballontnt A lot of you don't understand English, excluding the fist season means that in the first ever season of PL, all players had their debut seasons and that means most of them played every single game. Get it now?
