Another reason not to let Chelsea or Le Arse nick the title
As if we needed another reason, but I digree.
Henning Berg. The only player to have Premier League winners medals with two different clubs (us and Blackburn). If the Chavs win then Ashley Cole will get one, and if Arsenal win then Gallas will get one, and then each will have won the title with Chelsea and Arsenal (oh and Silverstre too now this year). So yeah, if not for the glory, knocking Liverpool of their fucking perch, Giggsy's 11th, etc, then for Henning Berg!

Yes, but if good old Kidneyhead moves to Chelsea in January and Chelsea and Arsenal through some bizarre and technically impossible mishap can't be separated at the top of the table come May, he will be the only player to win it three times, as well as the only one to win it with two different clubs in one season.
Anelka, by the way. |

Oh yeah...
See this is one of those thoughts I had about a season and a half ago and have been sitting on ever since, only to post it yonks down the track when I should be studying. PS Kenneth Waltz theory of nuclear peace makes every citizen in every country of the world a hostage. How does that make you feel? |

Well Arsenal won't win it, it will be us or Chelsea.
I personally think we'll miss out on it this year as we've only done three times on bounce once before in a piss poor competition that year. The Prem is so much stronger these days than 2001. |

Great bit of footie trivia, the Henning Berg one. Ashley Cole's been close for the last 2 seasons, would be nice if it didn't happen.
Anyone able to name the 3 players with Division 1 championship (top flight) medal with one club and a Premier League winners medal with another? Without cheating! |

Shite. If the question was correctly phrased, Batty is incorrect, as he refused to accept the medal he earned for Blackburn (he only played five games that season), and Lukic didn't play at all for Arsenal in 97/98, though he was at the club.
