    I'd say the only team I could think of that did it might be Blackburn - if so that's only a one off so it's hardly a common occurrence.

    Obviously this is just talking Premier League era - no idea who may have done it before that!

      Wenger really pissed me off droning on about how lucky we are, and how they could be in the same position as us but for them being utter ****e!

        Maybe not that simple when I read it back to myself. Perhaps just punch them.
        ps probably over the years i have probably punched all of them, them days are behind me now. maybe.

          They were in the Uefa cup.

          Leeds were the last champions without starting the season in European competition.

            So once in the whole Premier League era. Easy peasy.

              Leeds wasn't even premier league era!

              Blackburn was when only one champions league spot was available.

                    Pressure on from the start of the season too if it happens, now that Wenger has had his say on how much easier it is.

                      What's the significance of being in Europe while winning the league? A deeper squad?

                          There's a counter argument for only having a game a week in that you could lose momentum. You always hear commentators saying '*so and so* can't wait for the next game to come'. Also, speaking on a human level, you can lose discipline. With a game a week away, I could see why some players might be tempted to go out on the lash

                          I do think it has helped with injuries but we have a smaller sqaud than the other contenders so that point is moot imo.

                          You'll hear whatever fits the narrative really. Wenger made the point only to defend his team and their performances.

                            We've had our fair share of those anyway to be fair.

                              People will have been knocked out in the group stages and still won, which will only have been an additional 6 games
