you never know that given 1 more quality signing(right wing) we would finish 1st in May! And i think without being over optimistic the current team is very strong playing Benitez's tactic that is tight defence fast attack.

We are way behind the top 3 in performance last season. The gap is huge.
To improve we gotta aim at being the best and play like we are championship material. The players cannot have the mentaility that as long as the club gets 3rd = its an improvement.
That's WRONG! The players and us fans, needs to support them in achieving what has been missing. The winning mentality. We need to set a target that's possible for them yet not as easy(getting 3rd). That's to win the league! We could have been 3rd last season if the guys played better on some games that we should never lose.
Arsenal was unbeaten in the league last year. No one could see that initially. But those players believe they can do it. They tried and they did. It was immense pressure to keep that record. We should have those spirit.
Arsenal will be beaten next season. By Liverpool! We will beat those top 3 to the top of the table. It doesn't matter who the manager selects to play. The selected ones must show that every match is a possibility to win. It is always best to win.
I hope that some can understand where I am coming from.
