I think in past times it was more a case of running out of steam and ideas rather than just capitulation which is the way it is now (we would never have gone out against Monaco with that invincibles team).

2003/2004 as good as that season was there is no question it was a missed opportunity to win this club a treble, but ultimately it was an opportunity that was beyond the ability of Wenger as a man motivator and a tactician to take.
