• To all AM members and guests.

    For the start of the new season, Arsenal Mania has relaunched the news side of the site. All articles are written by genuine Arsenal fans with no hidden agenda. You can visit the site via the menu at the top of the forum pages or go direct to our homepage

    Additionally, Arsenal Mania is now sending all its registered members a bi-weekly Briefing Bulletin containing a digest of news and views from both parts of the site. Some of you may have already received the first edition and those that haven't should do so before the big kick off against United. If you are a guest visitor to this forum then if you join as a member, you will automatically receive the Bulletin.

    Please support both these initiatives and help ensure the long term future of our site.

Sure:

Player of The Season: Ødegaard
Young Player of The Season: Saka
Goal of The Season: Partey vs. Sp**s
Signing of The Season: Zinchenko because of his fit in the tactical setup, Jesus if we're talking pure value for money.
Most Improved: Xhaka
Biggest Disappointment (player): Partey.
Lowest Point of The Season: Partey actually playing.
Best Team Performance: 2-0 win away at Newcastle, given the narrative in the build up and the stakes at play for both clubs.
Best Individual Performance: Jesus at home vs Leicester in a 4-2 win. 2 goals, 2 assists, was completely unplayable, glided around every defender.
Favourite Moment: Rice mugging Partey after having to listen to how awful and overrated Rice is for months :lol: From an Arsenal perspective, obviously the Nelson goal.
I was gonna go through West Ham’s 20+ losses to find all of times Rice was mugged off last season but there was just too many examples would’ve taken way too long because there were also moments in the wins and draws too.

Reading all the great replies and remembering all the great moments I cannot help feel bitter that we didn't win the league! 😢 This last month or so really stings! 🤬
Wonder why we actually collapsed so badly because I’m not sure it’s just on Holding. Like Ramsdale was awful vs Southampton for example or all of Partey’s bad games.

I think you can point fingers at the manager because it was two seasons in a row we collapsed at the end but then the question is if we were performing above our level anyway.

I have put my theory, for the late season slump, forward before. I think it was a combination of key injuries, several players loosing a bit of form, team overall running out of steam combined with City winning out and us (team, fans etc.) loosing faith. Add to that the PL referees adding their secret sauce, the media wanting us not to win etc. it was all but too steep a hill to climb.
 

Arsenal Quotes

In 1997/98 we became English champions as I had set myself three missions to carry out which I felt were essential. One: to have an impact on the result and the team's playing style. Two: to foster the player's individual development. Three: to strengthen the structure of the club and enhance its global influence.
