Manchester City.What a scumbag of a team that Arsenal side were. In a weird way something football misses now.
That's my weird feeling - there are no evil/truly dislikeable teams anymore.

Nobody has ever won the league with a gold kit (home/away/third)
Oh damn
Manchester City.
Nah. I disagree. I genuinely hate City because they’re a force for evil. They represent sportswashing. They have an unfortunately sizeable support amongst the youth, and are our City rivals.Nah. The club sure but the team/players are at worst boring, and even that is mostly because they win most of their games easily and I don't really care if they do or not anyway.
I used to hate that Arsenal side with a passion. I'd actively support anyone they were playing against. Only time I'm remotely invested in City is when I want them to stop Liverpool winning the league, and that's just purely because Liverpool fans would be much more annoying than City fans on account of the fact they actually have any.
The last genuinely evil teams were Chelsea/Liverpool during their pro racially abusing opponents phases.

I think Forest have a new keeper each time I watch them play.
Maybe you have just outgrown the tribalism that enabled you to vilify players of other clubs. Not to say there haven't truly been huge scumbags, but probably your threshold for that label were lower in the past.Yes but that is the club. Not the players/team.
Nearly every player in that Arsenal team was a despicable cheating git. What have City got? A goalkeeper with an irritatingly stupid tattoo, a midfielder who moans about part of his job as a footballer being to play football a lot. That's about it. Nowhere near enough to invest me into actively wanting them to lose.
Also the ownership thing has killed the rivalry a bit for me. Its just made them too artificial. They win the treble and it gets them a half hearted pat on the back from a few pundits.
I get where you're coming from though it probably isn't hard to see why. They are young men in great shape and usually on good salaries (until you get down to semi-pro level). Moreover, they'll have access to parties where meeting women is a piece of piss.Every (male) footballer seems to have a girlfriend, fiancée, or wife.

I know what you mean but I'd consider the Liverpool side that had Van Dijk, Robertson and Henderson truly annoying. Just a neauseating air of self entitlement.What a scumbag of a team that Arsenal side were. In a weird way something football misses now.

Apart from the time we beat Nottingham Forest away by that score…checks notes 19 days before I was born.7-1 happens a lot. 8-1 has never happened
Adama Traore has been heralded as a threat for 8 years while never scoring nor assisting in that time.

Emphasis on bicep bulgeIt's always on the first few gameweeks of the season too.
Boro 8-1 City7-1 happens a lot. 8-1 has never happened
Wow, they must've had a great manager if they beat City by that margin - maybe we should hire him!Boro 8-1 City
I appreciate the joke, but the bar is so low that even Southgate would be an upgrade on what we haveWow, they must've had a great manager if they beat City by that margin - maybe we should hire him!

Came here to post exactly the same comment about Iniesta.Andres Iniesta actually retired 5 years ago but nobody knew about it until now
Nani actually retired couple years ago but nobody knows about it
And next season will probably be even worse than this one.Every season since SAF retired we've had our "worst start to a season in 50+ years"
