But.... there was talk of 90mph and seam movement..... I dont like this.
I cant quite believe some of the **** I have read. Describing a batting line up that, at that point, contained Cook, Root, Bairstow, Moeen and Stokes as the 'worst to ever tour Australia' was utterly ridiculous. Were they not watching cricket in the 90s?
I dont think talent is the issue. Its their ability to hang around all day and turn a 350 into a 500.
Yes, I think that's pretty much what I have said and I fail to see how anyone who is objective and even slightly intelligent can't agree.
If you're one of the ten richest clubs in the world you should be challenging for your domestic league most years, not every year, but most of them. How can anyone not agree with that?
It's all the same thing nowadays, even for professionals. After all, they mostly get their information from Google, same as everyone else, before passing it on to Wenger.
Thing is, there's no such thing as an unknown, potential hundred million pound superstar footballer that nobody has ever heard of. And even if there is, everyone on the internets would've already heard of him.
"Plenty of strikers can score goals," he said, gesturing to the famous old stands casting shadows around us.
"But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."
In fact it isn't an oxymoron at all as challenging for something is not the same as winning it. There is no contradiction whatsoever in stating that you think a side will challenge for the title but that somebody else will win it.
You should note that I didnt say they couldn't win it. I said I thought they wouldn't.
The issue is when the nine richer clubs are as catered across each competition you want to challenge for.
We should have won the league, or at least got ****ing close, the year Leicester won it. THat was piss poor. In truth we have not put in a serious title challenge for donkeys years and that isn't good enough.
I wouldn't expect us to be up there every year but by the same token we shouldn't fail to challenge every year.
