In Rafa's four season, we finished above Arsenal and win CL and made to two finals and three semi finals. We also won FA cup during that time. So i think we did very well compared to Arsenal but I agree Chelsea and Man u are hard to catch. So i don't know this Big 3 stuff and we being neighbours. If not better, we and Arsenal on similar terms. We have more chances to do better in Cl than you doing better in Uefa Cup (at least our past record in CL - which is much much better than Arsenal - tells the same thing). Keane deal will be done by monday. But I am not sure if we are interested in barry anymore (untill Alonso leaves).
Also there are lot of ifs and buts in your statement. For a moment I thought I am on a Bitter's (everton) forum.
