I sort of see what you mean, but Benfica did us at the start of the'91-2 season.

At the end of it, he switched Merse and Limpar's flanks so they'd cut inside onto their stronger foot and had Campbell and Wrighty in peak form.

Didn't we bear Villa 5-0 and Weds 7-1 with some sublime footie?

He then did a Dick next season, decided he didn't want any creativity and drove out anyone with any creative ability.

Well, at least that's how I remember it. I'm sure LA will be along in a bit to point out every single sentence I've written is factually inaccurate. But that was my take.

Hence the next season, we won both cups playing defensive football.

Listen mate, when you get to my age it's a miracle that I remembered it was George Graham I was talking about, never mind precise details.

He did turn us into a team that played boring football and kicked people, and that is shameful.

Oh, I totally agree. It's just I loved that front 4 at the end of '92, that's why I remember it so much.

I thought we'd have the league in the bag the next year, playing Wengerball, but instead we just ground out 1-0s in the cups. So disheartening.
