I agree with your post overall except with the fact that Arsenal with Thierry Henry was maligned a one-man-team. Henry was the star of the team, but it wasn't perceived as a one-man-team. It's a misconception many people have and it's not accurate at all. You could say the same thing about Barca of 2004-05, then 2005-06. Yes, Ronaldinho was the superstar in the team, but it wasn't misrepresented a one-man-team. Henry's departure was great psychologically from the likes of Fabregas and Adebayor as they became more assertive, showing leadership qualities and they just blew up! I used to make fun of Adebayor and I wasn't impressed by Fabregas, but they just amazed me last season? Where were all those skilss hidden when Thierry Henry was in the line-up? And I am sorry, but Wenger has lost his touch. Before, he got rid of Anelka and replaced him with Henry etc, but what has he done lately?
Are manchester United going to do a clean sweep? Its worrying..lol. They are on fire right now, especially after winning the Carling cup.
