Are these the most overhyped teams in football history? 10 sides either praised too much or too soon

Make no mistake, this was a brilliant Arsenal team. But they are routinely referred to as 'The Invincibles', despite the fact they didn't go unbeaten that season, let alone win more than one trophy or push on to win two titles in a row. Chelsea knocked them out of the Champions League with a win at Highbury (they'd already lost twice in the group stage), Man United beat them in the FA Cup and Middlesbrough won home and away in the League Cup. talkSPORT’s Drivetime presenter, Adrian Durham, has also made his thoughts very clear on this one. He believes they played for draws at the end of the campaign, while arguing their cup defeats proves they were beatable.
