I don't often listen to Talkshite but when I do Jim White is always up Martin Keowns backside telling everyone about Arsenals Invincibles achievement.
I couldn't believe what i was listening to today when Keown said "There is no greater achievement in football than being unbeaten throughout a season"!!
No mention of City's Treble winning or 100 points seasons.
It’s a unique achievement. As was 100 points/100 goals. I try not to get drawn into the media debates about what was “best”. They are both achievements held by only one side everIs going unbeaten that great ? It sounds amazing but if you look at it, 12 draws wasn't it.
Would a team that drew every match and got relegated be as great as that arsenal side ? Both go unbeaten.

I’ll go out on a limb and say we have an important game early tomorrow?https://www.manchestereveningnews.c...tball-news/man-citys-115-ffp-charges-29137611 MEN leading the way with cutting edge journalism ;) At least it credits an author.
A feat we should have matched last season.Preston North End are Invincibles. Won the League without losing a game. Also won the FA Cup without conceding a goal to do the double.
I did not know that! Thanks!Preston North End are Invincibles. Won the League without losing a game. Also won the FA Cup without conceding a goal to do the double.
This is the sort of quote that keeps Liverpool, United, Arsenal, and Chelsea owners, execs, and coaches up at night.
Most of us old blues never thought we would ever hear a highly sought after 14 year-old phenom footballer utter this in relation to little ole City. This is the sort of sentiment that makes Tebas want to go on another “City are the greatest evil in the history of the world” rampage. The entire Bayern Munich structure starts to get queezy when they see this sort of thing. A not-so-small portion of the sport media captured by those clubs will do everything they can to spin and distort this and similar comments from other young players in order to obfuscate our growing influence.
And they should all be terrified, as this is only the beginning. Those clubs had there period when every young kid playing football in the park or the academy ground fantasised about being the star player for their team.
Now it is City’s turn. The future is sky blue. Pass it to Grimble.
Kind of agree with this - but its not like the invincible title hasn't ever been achieved before with PNE doing it before the PL existed.It’s a unique achievement. As was 100 points/100 goals.
