Wenger - It would be 'criminal' not to build on this season
By Richard Clarke

Arsène Wenger argues it would be "criminal" if his Arsenal side did not kick on from this season.

The Gunners ended their 2007/08 campaign with a 1-0 win at Sunderland on Sunday.

They finished one place and 15 points better off than 12 months ago yet, considering their flying start, the failure to land a major trophy can only be seen as a disappointment. But, according to the manager, it is hardly "the implosion" that has been portrayed.

Indeed, the Frenchman believes his side will come back older, wiser and better next season. His main aim will be to exploit the advances of this campaign to the maximum.

“I think the big core of the team is ready to come back and fight," said the manager. "I think all of them are determined to come back and win.

“I feel they have created something special and not to take advantage of that would be criminal for me.

"At the moment the vibes coming out of the club is like we are going to implode but it is not like that at all.

“It is very stable and we are in a very good financial situation, we have a good team and good players. You have to let people talk then come back and win. I will be a busy man [this summer] but I am not worried.

“Like every big disappointment you have in life, you go through a period where you have to swallow, digest it and think where do I go from here?"
 
YES!!!

There's a soft spot for Portugal, for reasons related to Manchester United , but Germany's my team for Euro 2008!​

“I don’t know why people want to put words in my mouth. As I said on Friday, I love Arsenal and I will be here next season.



"I am off to Togo tomorrow but will return to Arsenal for pre-season training in July.”

Wenger moves to bring Vela into the Arsenal fold
By Richard Clarke

Arsenal have firmed up their desire to bring Carlos Vela into the first-team squad next season by applying for a work permit.

The 19-year-old striker is currently on loan at Spanish side Osasuna but Arsène Wenger has consistently suggested he would bring the Mexican into the fold at the end of the summer. Speaking ahead of the last weekend, the manager revealed the Club were taking the necessary steps to make that happen.

"We have applied for a work permit for him now," said Wenger. "And he will be involved with the first-team next season.

"He has played the whole season at Osasuna on the left wing and he had to work hard there. But for me it is not his position he is a central striker, an Eduardo type."

Osasuna certainly need a poacher for their final game of the season. With one game to play they are a point above the relegation places. Only a victory at home at Racing Santander on Sunday can guarantee they stay up.
