Fun debate, isn’t it? Which is the best Premier League team of all time?
, isn’t it? Hmm. Enduring image. Obviously the best of Wenger’s great Arsenal sides even if by absurd modern standards set by your Citys and Liverpools their final points tally of 90 looks a bit underwhelming. They may have been unbeatable, but you did have half a chance of a draw if you played your cards right.
This was Jose Mourinho’s doing, of course, the great man then in his absolute pomp, waltzing into English football and instantly charming the press before blowing up the cosy Arsenal-United, Ferguson-Wenger duopoly that had come to rule English football for years. People who dislike Liverpool for some inexplicable reason are fond of pointing out that Liverpool’s only Premier League title comes with an asterisk because of the Covid. That this season is forever tainted by the inconsistent ruleset under which it was played, and that a big chunk of the season was played in the summer in empty stadia just to get the season boxed off.
With nobody to push them on or off the field, Project Restart was perhaps understandably underwhelming. Liverpool won only six of their last 11 games to fall short of the 100-point mark. Ninety-nine is still really very good indeed, though, and this thrilling yet resilient team had the title in their pockets after a 30-year wait with seven games still to play.
