Seriously, Frank Lampard is an absolute legend of the game. He needs to be recognised in some way eg. Frank Lampard OBE, Sir Frank Lampard or some kind of lifetime achievement award.

Greatest ownage machine: Scholes. Absolute animal when he was a regular poster, I always knew I was in the right when he was backing me up, and I couldn't wait to read a topic that he was posting in because I knew he'd be tearing someone apart

I was just looking at the full Prem table http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_prem/table/default.stm and all things considered, Arsenal's main problem has clearly been the number of draws, rather than losses...11 draws in fact are the reason we did not really contend for the Prem this season.

Why do you think that is...the main reason, or combination?

Lack of confidence? Teams parking the bus (knowing how to defend against us)? Not taking our chances? Not being able to hold onto a lead? Conceeding late soft goals? What do you think, and how will Wenger look to improve the squad in the summer so we can truly contend once more?
Here's was fucked us over:

1) Too many young players in their first proper season in the prem starting loads of games early on in the season, hence us losing 5 of our first 14.

2) Mid season injuries to Cesc, Walcott, Ade etc leaving us toothless in attack, leading to loads of 0-0's.

We're now top of the form guide, unbeaten in 21, and looking pretty damn tough. The experience that players like Song, Denilson, Walcott etc. have picked up this season will be invaluable for next campaign when they should hit the ground running.
Good points fella, but we still lack depth imo, and need to address it while we can in the summer.

I think it is a huge mixture of things but next season things will be different I promise you that.
