Is Arsenal bullied by the media?

GLOBAL CLUB

Arsenal has a global fanbase, as a result of the Wenger successes. We’re not the only club to hold a global profile. Real Madrid, Barca, Man United, and possibly Juve and Bayern, are bigger. But Arsenal certainly is a recognised club around the world.

So with many fans, it stands to reason it will get attention. It’s just basic marketing at play. A larger market to sell to means more opportunities. With respect to clubs like West Ham or Burnley, they don’t possess a global profile, hence less attention in the media houses.

Given the club's global presence, media networks can communicate and reach not just the UK, but most of Europe, the Americas, Africa, and Asia.

Being global has many boons, such as greater revenue streams, sponsorship deals, etc. However, the primary negative is that it can lead to "excess attention". I believe in this case, the rough should be taken with the smooth.
