That Arsenal invincible side was probably and will probably be the best team I will ever witness in my life because they were special and looking back I believe this team had everything. I believe that Arsenal were the best team in the world at that period of time and it beats Argentina 74 and 78 side as well as Brazil 1970 team and believe me that is some statement. The movement the skill the flair the pace the power......................I could go on and on because you wont ever see a better team again folks.

Yeah, but he didnt need to build a new team, he just gradually sold the old team and repalced them with players that are half as good.

Henry ... Adebayor
Pires ... RVP
Ljungberg ... Nasri
Vieira ... ???
Campbell ... Gallas

All of those replacements are nowhere near the standard of their predecessors, its sad to see Wenger throw away all that talent and not adequately repalce them.

Nasri has MUCH more talent than Ljungberg. Freddie was a passenger. Nothing without Bergkamp and Pires...

Obviously im more than a little bias, but they weren't as good as the treble winning united side or the double winning one from last season

Whats funny about that? Granted you went unbeating, thanks to an rvn penalty miss and a pires dive, but you only won the league. The '99 side did something which no english side has ever done, and i think last seasons side is better than they were.

This is one of those debates that noone can win because you have your opinion and i have mine, niether of us are wrong.

I don't think the double winning side of last season was as good as the '99 side. The 99 side is probably the best ive seen, along with the 04/05 Barca side and the 03/04 Arsenal side.

Homer...

You are entitled to your opinion and I don't think you are far off; The Invincibles were a special team, but...many come close or even beat it in my opinion. That Invincible side didn't amount the same amount of points Chelsea did under Mourinho and Mourinho's side did well in the other competitions too.

The Invincibles only reached the quarters in Europe...

Teams that come close in the last decade or so -

Madrid (3 CLs in 6 years, star-studded side).

Barca 04-06 (Unbelievable football with the greatest player I've clamped eyes on playing for them...Two league titles and a CL).

United 06-08...well up there considering in both seasons, we were CLOSE to the treble!!! In 06/07 we had a goal difference of plus 58...Our midfield was Scholes, Carrick, Giggs, Ronaldo with Smith/Park partnering/aiding Rooney...as you can see, a couple of ordinary players in there but what a side. Semis of the CL, after winning the first lef against Milan, 7-1 against Roma, title winners, goals galore, FA Cup finalists after beating 5 Premiership teams....what a season, did me so proud.

07/08...more stars, more mental strength, Rio and Ronaldo the stars of the show, double winners and FA Cup quarter-finalists (Damn)...

Milan in that time have also been great.

Mourinho's Chelsea...pure winners.
Scholes
 

Seriously, Frank Lampard is an absolute legend of the game. He needs to be recognised in some way eg. Frank Lampard OBE, Sir Frank Lampard or some kind of lifetime achievement award.

Greatest ownage machine: Scholes. Absolute animal when he was a regular poster, I always knew I was in the right when he was backing me up, and I couldn't wait to read a topic that he was posting in because I knew he'd be tearing someone apart
