    This thread was created as a means of taking pleasure out of the troubles Arsenal were experiencing, and it made finishing third all the more sweet. I get supporting your own, but I really don't see the point in taking pleasure at the woes of others, but whatever, not worth making a big deal over...

    I actually really hope Bayern win on Saturday, it wouldn't seem right for the 6th best team in England to win Europe's premier competition. And I'd like to think that the four teams who qualify are the four best teams. And Tottenham finished 4th fair and square. I feel that there should be a play off in instances like this, that if for example Chelsea won it, there should be a preliminary qualifier for the next season whereby Chelsea would play Tottenham over two legs- that way Chelsea still get their chance to defend their title and Tottenham still get a shot at qualifying, and UEFA are kept happy by ensuring no more than four English teams qualify.

    Also, and I think we can all agree on this- I really don't want to see John Terry lifting that trophy :mad:

    I know this won't go down well in these parts but I have never really had an issue with arsenal. However I can't stand Chelsea and Utd then Liverpool fans who i know traditionally wreck my head.

    I honestly think that if was any other team then Chelsea in the final I wouldn't mind as much. Like what was mentioned above Terry is the least likeable player I have seen in the Play so seeing him lift the trophy would almost be as bad as us not qualifying.

    Christ I really hope Bayern win.

    I never commented on this thread, even when Arsenal went through their bad patch I never wrote them off. Rivalry is a good thing, only have one mate who supports the Gooners thankfully.

    The gap has definitely closed between both clubs, I’ll be checking the fixture list in earnest for the new season. For me Liverpool top the list, several idiotic mates spouting on year after year. More so down to the supporters than the actual club.

    It's good that we have a proper rivalry IMO. Not being from London I have never really gotten to experience the 'localness' of the NLD rivalry. Now that the teams have become closely matched the games come with much more at stake and a way bigger buzz about them. It's more exciting overall.
    I have a few Spurs supporting mates and now instead of everyone expecting Arsenal to win without too much hassle as has been the case in years gone by, we can meet up at the pub for a proper bit of match banter, with the outcome far from certain!
