because of the long term success they had for a decade

This prompts me to do something pointless and add up the success of top flight clubs in the main competitions over the last five years (Premiership, FA Cup, League Cup, UEFA Cup, Champions League). Seasons 2000/2001, 2001/2, 2002/3, 2003/4, 2004/5.
In alphabetical order:
Arsenal - 2xPremiership, 3xFA Cup
Chelsea - 1xPremiership, 1xLeague Cup
Liverpool - 2xLeague Cup, 1xFA Cup, 1xUEFA Cup, 1xChamps League
Manchester Utd - 2xPremiership, 1xFA Cup
Middlesbrough - 1xLeague Cup
Blackburn - 1xLeague Cup
So the long-term success is rather in the past, Liverpool and Arsenal have each won 5 trophies in the last five seasons, so presumably everyone should hate them now?

He'd heard it from the Sun, thus making it a circular story and worthless. We'll have Torres, please.
