at least arsenal didnt buy titles by stacking up 30 mill players.then cried when chelski and shitty started doing it.a muppet could win titles by out spending the rest which was red noses best skill.you won nothing last season,and looking at your team and awful defence nothing this year.
OZ, what you and so many others always forget is, the big difference between United and Chelsea and City is, United earned their wealth via smart on and of pitch managing, no pennies from heaven for United, just good old fashion smarts! So that proves success can come even without big oil money, so, are you jealous?????
