Not sure where to post it, so just opened a new thread.
I was not following Arsenal at that time and can't find any decent review of 05/06 season, so can you tell me what the hell happened at that time that we almost finished 5th and got 4th on the very last day?
Watched the season review DVD and it didn't tell much about the season as DVD makers were insistent on calling the season "historical", "memorable", etc. (you would think that we won the league that season).
I checked the team squad and on paper it looked very well: starting eleven missed only Vieira compared to the invincibles.
Henry apparently was on top form, nice mixture of young and veteran players, lots of the invincibles. So what went wrong?
Veterans faded badly? Injuries? Opponents cracked our gameplan? Dodgy defence (got such impression from the DVD)?
