Wenger eyes 'domination'

  Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger believes his side are capable of achieving 'domination'.

   

  The Gunners hit the ground running last season, and stormed to the top of the Premier League table.

   

  However, their campaign deteriorated towards the latter stages as Chelsea and Manchester United gained momentum to leave Arsenal empty-handed for a third successive season.

   

  But Wenger, who previously guided Arsenal to a 49-game unbeaten league run, feels his squad have the potential to continue their recent progress and claim glory in the 2008/09 term.

   

  Desire

   

  "At the end of the season I just told the players to go on holiday, forget about it for a few weeks, and be ready to come back with a new desire and new hope for next season," Wenger told the official Arsenal magazine.

   

  "I feel the togetherness is there, the desire is there, and the quality is there. They have very good ingredients. We have done extremely well.

   

  "We had 68 points last year, and we had 83 this season, so we made a big improvement.

   

  "We just want to make another improvement next year, and if we can manage that improvement, what will follow naturally is domination."

  joke la, compare this with what he's been saying about how arsenal will have to sell star players for next two decades..

  am i doomed to spend the best years of my life supporting a club that can be the champion but refuses to?
