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.
"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."
