Not really. If we had won a few things in the last few years then maybe but we havent. As I have said repeatedly on here, if just once someone at the club came out and said `its not good enough not winning a trophy' Id have a lot more respect for them. But this constant shit about how we have qualified for the CL for 100 years on the trot is just irrelevant now. One last thing, Wenger's reputation itself is becoming diluted by our lack of success. At the end of the 2005 season, he had won 3 league titles, 4 FA cups and two doubles in 9 years - an incredible record. Now its 16 years and not nearly as good. Its his own legacy he's fucking up.
I have. . .the same way I enjoy sticking pins in my eyes, which is what it has felt like watching the boys plough their way through the fixture list at times!
Seriously though, I do think that although we have had some shockers there have been some great moments too. . .and I think if we only had a bit more talent in depth, a bit more confidence and consistency we could have been up there more. . .although we cant mask the fact that we were still miles behind Manc x2
But we did better than last year and I believe showed more balance than in ages. . We need to look at the good and bad, and learn from it. . .a good start will not to fanny around with transfers both in and out this time around
Hello Hello we are the Arsenal boys hello hello
Yes. But my frustration level has throughly been tested. Having only been a fan since 2000(when games became available to watch in US for me), I've never witnessed anything like it. So glad we pulled it together enough to make 3rd in the end.
Still, lots to change this summer if we want to challenge Manchester(s)/Chelsea/Spuds/Etc....for the title. Ready to hit the reset button and start with a clean slate for 2012-2013 season.
I've definitely enjoyed a lot of the ups of this season, most notably Henry's return and the thrashing of Milan, Spurs and Chelsea. The lows have also been quite pathetic on the other hand - think the 8-2 loss to ManU was my worst ever day as an Arsenal fan and the 4-3 and 4-0 against Blackburn and Milan were quite humiliating as well.
Season as a whole... I'm still not sure. I'm pleasantly relieved to have finished 3rd and like the bottle and fight a few more of our players have, but we still had no chances of trophies and this was clear from the start.
The King Is Back.
Dismal season tbh. Was out of running from all the competitions by February. There were some great games though- Chelsea away, Spurs home, Milan home and the biggest of ALL- TH14's goal against Leeds. That goal was good enough to make this season decent actually.
We can go back to the season before last or the one before that and its been the same.
Honestly not really, most games were just boring. The only thing that kept me interested in most of the games, were the match threads.
I haven't watched a game all season. So no.
It's been a rollercoaster.
Much like the Saw ride at Alton Towers.
