Just an idea. Would it not be refreshing if the Premier League introduced a form of handicap deducting points at the beginning of the year so some teams would start in the negative.. .

Just an idea. Would it not be refreshing if the Premier League introduced a form of handicap deducting points at the beginning of the year so some teams would start in the negative.. The more you paid for your squad, the more points would be deducted at the start of the season. This way the poorer teams could compete more and it would make for a more competitive league instead of always seeing the usual suspects at the top. It would stop super wealthy businessmen (mostly from foreign countries) from buying a team and trying to "buy" the league.
If this were currently the case you could have Everton, Man C and Aston Villa at the top with MU and Arsenal. Chelsea would be some way down. This could force down the ridiculous prices paid for players and force the clubs to develop some young home grown talent.
man city 2-2
tottenham 2-1

I think Wenger is over doing it now. Every week he comes up with this BS. he wanted tevez, then he wanted beckham, then another bunch, now Ronaldo. what an idiot.
The Arsenal manager admits Ronaldo would get his vote for Footballer of the Year, based purely on the last 12 months up to now.
"I did not expect Ronaldo to score as many as he did because he plays on the wing," said Wenger.
"Someone asked me what is the difference between Ronaldo and Lionel Messi? It is the goals. Messi is more of a dribbler in a very short space, but Ronaldo is good in the air, good on free-kicks, right foot, left foot. He has developed very well.
"Another quality Ronaldo has is he is healthy. He does not miss games. He has missed less games than [Wayne] Rooney and Messi in the last two years. He can take the kicks."
wenger is an idiot? please
and exactly how many cups have you won?
Wenger is a genius, the smartest man in world football..
So what he hasnt won 14 league trophies, but hes done pretty damn well in the time hes been there with the amount of money hes spent, the players he has developed, and turned into world known names..
PS - have a single article where he said he was going to buy tevez?
so what if he wanted to buy beckham from real madrid? or ronaldo before united did, what exactly is your issue?
catch why u being so rude to everyone man
if this is how aussies talk to ppl then go back to kangaroo land
well nivek i would say arsene is one of most intelligent coaches, i dont think sir alex can be an idiot with all he has done in football
you cannot win all those trophies and not be one of the most intelligent coaches around
i also dont think jose mourinho is an idiot either
there is also no doubt in mind that ronaldo is by far the best player in the world but a long way
who is this ***a person who won the football prize?
yes catch arsene wenger was giving him a compliment noobcake
I think you the biggest idiot here.

My post was to question why Wenger is always coming up with stories- ' I wanted to sign him'. he is getting old with these comments now. thats my issue.
oh ya, forgot to mention he 'wanted' berbatov too. http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11670_3032092,00.html
IMO Wenger is a top coach. He is brilliant in what he does. No question about that and I admire him for making Arsenal one of the best.

you dont understand do you ? (imo) he is going overboard with these comments. He should just shut his mouth and sign someone when he wants them, not blabber how he wanted them after some other team(s) gets him/them. its not just Tevez,Beckham,Ronaldo,Berba ... theres many more. but if you did not know about how he wanted Tevez so badly, you definately wouldnt know about how many others there are.Ok, so again, so what if he wanted to sign Tevez? Tevez, Ronaldo and Beckham are all good players, its not like he wants to sign them anymore.
You should be more worried about Real Madrid and Barcelona..

the word "idiot" cant be used to describe a persons action.. its a noun, they're either an idiot, or they're not.
anyhow
have a safe flight!
