[Dokaka]

I added a bit since it's best/worst, so shouldn't there be a worst defender, midfielder and forward?

Best Arsenal Goal: Walcott's 3rd against Newcastle.
Best Arsenal Performance/Win: How can it be anything else than beating Bayern away?
Best Arsenal Moment: Signing Podolski
Best Defender: Mertesacker, since Koscielny only played half the season.
Best Midfielder: Cazorla
Best Forward: Walcott


Worst Goal Conceeded: Diamé blowing past 2 Arsenal players and curling it past Szczesny
Worst Performance/Defeat: Bradford
Worst Defender: Vermaelen, shocking for most of the season, captain but benched. Says it all.
Worst Midfielder: Wilshere. Shined at times but overall got outshined by Ramsey and the midfield looked better after he got injured.
Worst Forward: Arshavin. My god what a shadow he is now compared to his former self.

Best Arsenal Player: Walcott. I said he's a 20+ goal a season player and he proved it this season. Popped up when it mattered time and time again, which is why he takes it just in front of Cazorla imo.
Worst Arsenal Player: Vermaelen. He was at fault for so many goals yet he played so many games.

[rich 1990]

Best Arsenal Goal: Pod against West Ham
Best Arsenal Performance: Bayern Away
Best Arsenal Moment : Full time whistle to signal the end of this season.
Best Arsenal defender: Per's been the most consistent but Kos has really dragged us over the line and if he'd stayed in the team from the start of the season, things would have been better.
Best Arsenal Midfielder : Santi, not even close
Best Arsenal Forward: Walcott
Best Arsenal Partnership: Mert/Kos

Worst Goal Conceded: Suarez at home. Never been so ****ed off in my life with a bit of straight forward defending. First Sagna falling arse over tits, then Vermaelen taking a hoof at the cross and missing it totally and then whacking it straight at 3 Liverpool players. Jesus Christ, it was bloody awful. Worst goal i've EVER seen us concede, shambolic. As you may tell, it annoys me even now.

Worst Performance/defeat: Bradford. So pitifully meak.
Worst player: Vermaelen. He's had an absolute shocker of a season.

Worst Goal Conceeded: Both goals against Sp**s away were horrible defending.
Worst Performance/Defeat: I expected much more from our performances against the top teams in general.
Worst Player: Apart from the obvious names, Szczesny was poor for a large part of the season. He has been decent since his return though.
