@BEK97 @Phreba Tottenham are the Jets of the EPL. I avoided them when I picked a team precisely bc I already have one Jets in my life.

@chopaganda @BEK97 in some way true, but is anyone really the Jets….I mean they would’ve been relegated by now. Tottenham is typically a top 6 team over the last several years. But, yeah, I’m a Mets fan and picking Tottenham instead of Arsenal(Yankees) or Chelsea as a London team, was bit risky. My son is a huge Chelsea fan, that’s also a good club to follow now that their oligarch is gone.

@Phreba @chopaganda I didn't see your latest reply before my last one. The Yankees comp gives me pause.

@BEK97 @Phreba Yankees comp for Arsenal is dumb.

That would be Man United, Chelsea, and now Man City. While Arsenal has spent more in recent years, they have always been about building teams, not buying them.

@chopaganda @BEK97 @Phreba The most accurate Arsenal comp is Michigan. Used to be great and their fans still act like it's 20 years ago. Love you, Chop! 😘

@drewphish @BEK97 @Phreba I know you said this to piss me off, but that’s not a bad comp.

- Formerly a perennial contender but never among the truly elite.

- Had a rough period where they got away from their traditional values and lost ground vs the competition

- Now under a resurgence after getting back to their roots with Harbaugh/Arteta

@chopaganda @BEK97 @Phreba @Nolasox Oh I made the comp because it was a good comp and because it would piss you off. Although I think the playing the right way and traditional values stuff is an eye roll. I just think they are both run better now on a bunch of levels.

@drewphish @BEK97 @Phreba @Nolasox Traditional values was a gross way of putting it. What I’m getting at is Harbaugh and Arteta brought back a team identity that was lacking.
