Arsenal - another disappointing season

I feel that my football team Arsenal have underachieved this season, and i'm disappointed that they are going to have another season without winning a trophy. Any other arsenal fans disappointed and frustrated

Im not an arsenal fan but admire their football. I think that their squad still isnt big enough unfortunatly. Hopefully they will make some good signings for next year and then they can go the distance.

I am not a Gunner's fan either and it is sooooo funny that it is now 3 year's since you won anything. Im sick and tired of Arsenal fan's claiming they are the best, play the best football and are the richest club in the world, who care's you aint won anything. Even as an outsider it is clear to see what your problem's are. Wenger need's to stop buying these cheap player's from african nation's hoping they will turn in to world beater's and buy some world class expierenced player's to get a nice blend between youth/expierence/class. It's all very well playing nice, attractive attacking football, but if there is no end product (like Barca against man utd) then you will not acheive anything. That is your downfall this year, not enough goal's and your inability to beat top class team's. Like the previous respondant mentioned, your squad is to small. You have missed Van persie most of this year (another Saha), Eduardo with his leg brake and Bentner is not good enough. All the pressure on Adebayor who has had to carry you this year.

i agree with some of what you put there, however, i also disagree with some of it. I agree that the squas isn't big enough, and i agree that there hasn't been a right blend between youth/experience and quality etc, and i also agree that maybe we need to buy a good star as well to replace Henry, i also agree with pressure being on Adebayor this season. So i agree with alot of what you have said. However, what i disagree on is that i do not think Arsenal are the richest club in the world and that is one of the reasons i don't support Man United, i don't want to support the richest club because i feel it's easier for them to achieve. I also feel that what you said about buying african players is rubbish because you mentioned that ADEBAYOR was one of the best players basically and he IS african so there's obviously a reason why we buy african players because we don't have enough money to buy expensive english players and african players are getting better. I see that Man United who you mentioned have also just bought a african player so we aren't the only team that buys them, considering we only have 3 or 4 african players anyway. Also i think it's too early to say whether or not Wengers plans will work or not. Also i disagree with the comment about Van persie, i think he's much better than Saha, and he's also younger than Saha so think it's too early to say that he's another Saha to be honest. I also think that Arsenal fans have the right to think what they like about the club they support, i also believe other fans can think what they like about Arsenal too but i think making a comment about arsenal fans thinking they are the best is bit ridiculous of course we are going to say that about our own club, you probably think that about whatever team you support. Finally Wenger is a good manager.

A little frustrated. They could do better with just a little more luck. If it has not be the reason of the wounded, they could be on the top in at least one of the leagues. They need to recruit more talent players next season.

I don't think somenone is qualified to call himself a fan of a particular team when it lost. There is never a forever winner. I think we support a team not because it wins, but because we like it. For those who claim themselves as fans but go away when things become hard, shame on you.

As a Liverpool fan I can relate to your feelings, would say that Arsenal had a decent season overall though it looked like they ran out of steam. Adebayor seemed to be the only one scoring goals and when he wasn't Arsenal didn't win, get more from Walcott and Van Persie fit for the whole year and next year should prove successful
