The team that won RECORD points and thus winning the most games EVER in the history of the PL. Arguably the best ever PL team.
I reckon the best PL side ever is our 04-05 winning team. Lost less games that year than arsenals "invincibles" the year before.
-----------
How can you have lost less games that the Invincibles who didn't lose just goes to show how amazing an achievement it was that is yet to be matched.
Also check your board prior to Newcastle away was full of articles stating 'can we actually go unbeaten' José dismissing but smiling about this question every week.
Deep down you wanted it so bad, but sorry not good enough. Chelsea don't have a memorable team and undee José never will but winning should really be all that matters as I said you'll do well to match such greatness provided by both Arsenal and United

A very well thought out and baiting wum article OP well done.
I reckon the best PL side ever is our 04-05 winning team. Lost less games that year than arsenals "invincibles" the year before.
Also we have most goals scored in a season too.
So i know you was wumming. But I have given you serious answers
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm sure the same could be said about the 08' Utd side, except to won the CL & the PL, should have been an FA Cup Final too if it weren't for Atkinson (I think, the Pompy game).
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I dunno busby, I believe that year we would of been a lot stronger had someone like avram grant not been in charge and we could of, probably should of won the league. Both sides were great that year. And it was a post that was the difference in the final.
Ontop of this our 04-05 team played some fantastic stuff. But it will be forgotten due to the bile and bitterness of fans in the whole and in the press.
Robben,duff,j cole, gudjohnsen, lampard, drogba...what a side.

God...you cant read dumbest poster on 606
No doubt, it was a great side, but you'll be remembered for what you win and to suggest they will be remember MORE so than a treble or PL/CL double winning side is a little naive.
Not to say it's wrong, but when you look back to 40 years ago, you don't remember the sides who nearly won things, and in the cases of league titles you rarely remember how they were won.
No doubt the core of that side, Essien, Terry, Lamps, Drogba will be remembered for decades to come though, more so for their impact on English football in it's entirety than a specific season. Nothing wrong with that.
"How can you have lost less games that the Invincibles who didn't lose just goes to show how amazing an achievement it was that is yet to be matched."
They will be referring to all competitions, Arsenal lost 6 games that season I believe. Both Utd and Chelsea have eclipsed that.

Wasnt exactly my point. I just dont believe the 2008 utd side was as good a team as the 04-05 team and your 99 side.
Maybe a bit of bias but as a team who are complete from back to front our 04-05 are near enough the best you could of got. The blend of pace and power. Maybe they wont be remembered like a treble side but as a TEAM they should be remember as one of the best starting 11s to start in the PL
"Wasnt exactly my point. I just dont believe the 2008 utd side was as good a team as the 04-05 team and your 99 side."
Sorry, I was referring to the question in the OP and how they'd be remembered.
I'm neither agreeing nor disagreeing as to which side was better, more so who would be spoken about more in the future.
I'd imagine the treble side will be spoken about in a similar vain to the Busby Babes and the great Liverpool sides, mostly due to their trophy haul.
That's why I also said the treble and Liverpool come back would be remembered more than the Utd or Chelsea triumphs in Europe, because it was a more memorable occasion.

Thank you for understanding a rather easy sentence.
seems its beyond some people.
The Arsenal team that went unbeaten (I will help you here) IN THE LEAGUE lost 6 games that season in ALL COMPETITIONS.
other teams have lost less games during a season
maybe. Agree as to who really cares. I dont think our 04-05 side gets enough recognition for whatever reason. But oh well.
And Munich for me was just an amazing night. There coutnry, there stadium, extra time, penalties. crazy

You said you lost less games in your title winning season than the Invincibles the year before you won the the title?
If you meant the Invincibles side the year before they were invincible then what relevance does that have as they weren't the side being bigged up nor did they win the league.
So elaborate...
Really are the dumbest poster. My god.
He’s not, he’s just the most blinkered.
Arsenal fans refuse to accept that their "unbeaten" season was in fact a sham. Yes they didn't lose in the PL, but in the cups they failed hopelessly and even in going unbeaten they drew a lot of games.
Am I missing something, please just repost your comment again explaning because what I've read seems to not make sense.
Did you say you lost less games than the Invincibles in the year we were invincible? Which is impossible.
Do you mean won more games? I might end up being embarrassed but I really can't understand your statement please respond without your silly 'so dumb' comments or 'can't read'
Just look at the number of draws they had during the closing stages of the season, tells you a lot about Wenger. Mourinho may appear overtly arrogant but Wenger has the bigger ego and his is a weakness as the results clearly show he was ruled by his ego, it dictated and inhibited his team. Points are what count and the pragmatists know that.
Do you mean lost less games in all competitions?
When you refer to "the invincibles", I assume you are referring to the Preston North End team of the 1880s managed by William Sudell?
Preston North End, the invincibles
Fact!
Something to do with Wayne Bridge at Highbury?

If so forgive me I thought we were only talking about the league as the OP is crediting you for your inevitable title win.
If it's great teams overall then wuite a few teams match Chelsea's 04-05. Arsenal's other double winning campaigns were just as good as the first team to gain some bravery and really challenge United on a yearly basis.
Liverpool CL in 05 is much more suited to the underdog status as Chelsea CL win in 12.
If it's overall then Chelsea's 04-05 team don't stand out at all but concerning just league greatness Chelsea's team were amongst the best but nowehere near as good as the Invincibles
Droog, Chelsea lost their last 2 games after strolling the league in 2006 under Mourinho.
