I'm an Arsenal fan with a soft spot for Liverpool. On some Arsenal sites, I see that many Liverpudlians wish the best of look for the CL Final, and would be glad if the Gunners would take the Liverpool's title.
So I thought not to be the only to appreciate both teams. On the forum of the Arsenalmania site, for instance, there's a topic upon a possible alliance/friendship between Arsenal and Liverpool. The major part of the fans intervened - among them many Liverpudlians - has confirmed that their second team is Liverpool (if Arsenal) or Arsenal (if Liverpool). I think that this good feeling is due not only to the classic your enemy's enemy (Manure and Chelsea) is your friend, but also to the fact that both Arsenal and Liverpool fans love attractive, flowing football, played in the way that it has to be played, and are glad when their teams play exciting attacking football, not when they play in a defensive or speculative way. I remember the beautiful squad that Liverpool had in the 70's with Keegan, Toshack, Dalglish, Mc Dermott, Kennedy, Souness, etc., and I always hoped to see again something like that: I think that the Arsenal of Arsene Wenger is worthy of that beautiful squad.
Plus, both Arsenal and Liverpool fans are friendly, and the the two teams are very popular but don't commercialise too much the club. Views?
