Football fans are on a never ending trip of tribalistic bitterness, sprinkled with an overflow of banter. This is why terms like "bottle jobs" are thrown around, it is to get under the skin of certain fanbases. And it doesn't get any more toxic than the Messi vs CR7 arguments between the fanboys.

They are both kinda right. Arsenal are a bit better than last season but the reality is they need to actually win something soon.

The arguement is not whether there is progression or not but rather whether the progression has been sufficient given the financial investments in rebuilding the team.

Bentys passionate about Arsenal, love it!

The question no one seems to ask in our fanbase is what progress have we made since we moved to Emirates from Highbury like we were promised? The basis for sacking our legend in Arsene was fourth place, FA cup and champions league wasn't good enough for us fans anymore. What is the progress from that Arsene era to these Arteta era. Seriously, I don't understand the vicious circle as progress.

17 league games this year. Won 15 drawn 1 lost 1. No matter what im proud of the team and hope there is still a twist to come. Klopp could've won more if not for Man City. Same is happening to Arsenal. Its coming down to fine margins which for a neutral should be great. Prem has been in danger of becoming a one team league for years. Thank goodness its becoming somewhat interesting again. Supported Arsenal since i was 9 back in 2002, never knew or wasn't aware of the team winning trophies at that time, i just loved the football they played. A huge section of the Arsenal fans are deluded and embarrassing at times, just remember we aren't all like that.

This Andy guy is something else. Ange is very intelligent

I think they have progressed, but there's still a bit of fragility about them. 6 points dropped to Villa, the loss to West Ham at home, playing for a draw at Liverpool and City, holding onto a 1-0 lead at United.

The best defence in Europe? Wth is bent smoking? Inter milan have conceded 19 and scored 86 goals all season and have a better goal difference than arsenal.

I get both sides of the argument and trophies does dictate success more than points accumlated. But context needs to be added here. As it stands, man city have 115 charges againest them. If they are proven guilty, this could mean that Arsenal could have won the Premier league twice, Liverpool could have won the league multiple more times and even Man utd would have won it as well. Now, if they are proven innocent, then there is more of a conversation to be had. But challenging againest a team that has potentially cheated, they will have the advantage. That a side. Guardiola is arguably the best manager to have graced the game and will always big a big challenge to overcome for any team/manager.

Discounts Brady, O’Leary, Basten, Adams and David seaman. Short term memories and Darren bent = Dimb.

The stats would say yes. They could still win it. Andy's logic is illogical. Progression is based on the club as well as the competition. There's nothing wrong with finishing second five seasons in a row. the trouble would be trying to find another manager whose only option is to win it. If another manager failed to win it or worse went backwards, that would be a disaster. Arsenal must be in a good place if you are scrapping to find faults.

Any arsenal fans remember Marc overmars? Growing up being im a marc to that was my nickname for the longest time.

Andy Goldstein speaks so much sense just people are full of excuses 😂 they’re ready not to hear it, ‘it’s not all about winning trophies’ of course it is 😂 arsenal went from celebrating 4th and now they’re celebrating 2nd, even Ole and Mourinho got United to finish 2nd 😂

They’ve made some progress superficially, but I think it’s been a disappointing season for them too. In years Liverpool missed out on the league, we won other trophies to offset the disappointment, like a Champions League or Domestic Double. Arteta prioritised the League and Champions League but might walk away with nothing. He threw away the Carabao Cup campaign, even though it’s a fantastic competition to play kids and get the players in a winning habit.

Goldstein says Liverpool and Leicester have won it whilst City have dominated. Let’s clear this up. Liverpool won it once in a decade under Klopp. That’s not taking anything away from Liverpool but just shows what team the rest of the league is up against whilst Leicester won it the year before Pep arrived. Arteta’s been challenging for two seasons, last year was a surprise to everyone, they were probably a year ahead of schedule, so that means Arteta and Arsenal have been genuine title contenders for just one season. Give him a chance, if Arsenal win the league sometime in the next 3 seasons how will it be any different to What Klopp achieved?

so if Arsenal win the title with 78 points, is it progression or failure? Final points tally means nothing if you aren't lifting the league title. That's why the world laughs at artetasexuals -- rubbing themselves off over point tallies that don't result in silverware.

I still find it strange how that generation of Arsenal players under achieved so much in the champions league.

Two of the best commentators of Talksport. Always rate you Benty, but Andy keeps you honest otherwise you would go full artetasexual. The objective of the sport -- which maybe you forgot since you won no major honours as a player -- is to win silverware. THAT'S IT.

It is about winning trophies. Arsenal has made progression, but no one is winning the league until Pep leaves.

Goldielocks gets more bitter and less intelligent every season, whilst Utd continue to not win anything and play so garbage. This season must have been so hard to watch as a Utd fan who's old enough to remember them winning everything. Their biggest rivals barring Chelsea( who still finished above them), were fighting for the title and are obviously are miles ahead of Utd currently. So it makes sense why he's like he is. I mean his highlight this season was nicking a point against Liverpool and luckily beating them in the cup. A bit like Liverpool fans when Utd were on top. Oh how the tables have turned... Long may it continue... Imagine what he's gona be like with another season of Erik

Goldstein is such a melt. You win trophies by winning games. If Arsenal consistently win more games season on season eventually they will win a trophy.

At the end of the day trophies matter most
