If they were that good they would have won the log. I do think it is an amazing performance by the team and one i don't think will be repeated in England again but they did have quite alot of luck as well. Just gets me annoyed that when United won the treble the press were like well done your quite good... when it's another side who only win one trophy they are the greatest team ever to have lived.. alot of double standards by the press here.

First of all Arsenal did not cheat or where 'lucky' to remain unbeaten every football team that is successful has a lot of luck. Man united have had a lot of luck in the past as well. The fact that we nearly lost at old trafford is because united missed not us you. Thats football you cannot keep going back and saying 'you wouldn't have won if he scored' because its stupid.
Second of all the press have always gone on and on about the treble and everyone is still saying 'arsenal is not man united cos they haven't won europe. Manchester has always had huge press because of its fan base the papers do talk about united a lot and united are still being prasied. Just accept that arsenal won and they deserved to. The league doent lie theres where the teams deserve to be, we accpeted it last year can you accept it this time?
