We asked every PickOurTeam writer to give their honest opinions on how their team fared this season. Here are the views of Arsenal writer Daniel Anwar:

Season in summary

Achieved the bare minimum. Scrapped into the Champions League spots, but never threatened to challenge. The League and FA Cup exits to Bradford and Blackburn respectively were disgraceful.…

Lukas Podolski was frozen out of the Arsenal starting XI until Olivier Giroud's red card at Craven Cottage, which resulted in the Frenchman being given a three-match ban, and therefore a return to the side for Podolski. Despite Theo Walcott's desire to play upfront, he remained on the right as Podolski played as the central…

One thing certain to happen this summer is Wilfried Bony leaving Vitesse, but his destination still remains up in the air, with a host of Premier League clubs interested in his services.

The Ivorian, who should finish as the Eredivisie¹s top goal scorer this season, in recent weeks has been linked with West Ham, who allegedly…

Late goals were the order of the weekend as the season entered its crucial phase: Gareth Bale and Juan Mata gave Spurs and Chelsea much-needed late wins in their quests for Champions League qualification, while Gabby Agbonlahor scored a vital late goal for Aston Villa at Norwich. Wigan also needed a late winner to keep…

QPR and Reading sealed their relegation fate while Wigan, Stoke and Aston Villa picked up valuable points in their fight against the drop. At the other end of the table, Robin van Persie scored on his return to the Emirates, while there were wins for Chelsea and Manchester City as Spurs dropped points in the…

Next month will mark eight years since Arsenal last won a major piece of silverware. It won't be commemorated by Gunners worldwide, but will serve as a reminder how things have changed at the club, notably the departure of many key personnel.

In what has become an annual tradition, since Patrick Vieira said goodbye in the…

With all the talk about Robin van Persie, this would have been a perfect opportunity for his successor at Arsenal, Olivier Giroud, to prove he's been a decent replacement in his first Premier League campaign. Giroud has been unable to match Van Persie's goalscoring tally, but his all-round play has been decent.

Giroud's red card for…

Is there any need for Robin van Persie to start at the Emirates on Sunday afternoon? Manchester United's number 20 scored the excellent hat-trick that sealed the club's 20th league title on Monday night against Aston Villa, and might be given a guard of honour by the Arsenal team that sold him last summer.

But Van…

Arsene Wenger is faced with a conundrum now that the FA have upheld Olivier Giroud's three match ban. The Frenchman seems to be the only player trusted to play as the lone striker, so who should play there in the crucial games coming up?

Lukas Podolski, who has played as a striker for much of his…

United clinched the title, Spurs gave new life to their bid for fourth place, QPR are as good as down after a home loss to Stoke while Liverpool came back twice, controversially, to draw 2-2 with Chelsea. It was another highly dramatic weekend of Premier League action, but who made it into the PickOurTeam Team…

Manchester United got back to winning ways, Arsenal got out of jail and QPR lost without a whimper on a weekend where things got very tense at both ends of the table. Chelsea and Spurs are level on points in the race for fourth spot while Stoke's defeat to Manchester United plunges them into the…

Despite the recent absences of Jack Wilshere and Theo Walcott, we've managed to claw our way back into contention for the Champions League spots. We may even finish as high as third, despite the underwhelming, fractured nature of our season so far. Now that Wilshere and Walcott are nearing first-team returns, Arsene Wenger's got a…

There was late drama in the three big games of the weekend, as Wigan's Shaun Maloney gave Harry Redknapp 'the worst moment' of his 45-year career with a late equaliser at QPR; Gylfi Sigurdsson rescued a point for Spurs in a 2-2 draw with Everton; and Sergio Aguero gave Manchester City a win at rivals…

A sold win at the top for Manchester United, which led to a managerial change at Sunderland, and Manchester City's best performance of the season were the stories at the top of the table while at the bottom, Southampton moved clear of the drop with a home win over Chelsea, while Wigan beat Norwich to…

Two sides certain to strengthen their defence this summer are Liverpool and Arsenal. After both started this campaign modestly from a defensive standpoint, it couldn’t be any different in the last few weeks.

The last 18 months has seen the profile of Williams rise incredibly. And according to the Daily Mail () Arsene Wenger is expected…

One Montenegrin name that won’t be leaving the back pages in England is that of Stevan Jovetic. Going into the recent World Cup qualifier against Roy Hodgson’s men, in Podgorica, extra attention was paid to him after he revealed an affinity for Arsenal.

This, as you’d expect, fuelled transfer speculation. Jovetic, currently flourishing with Fiorentina, told…

It's been another groundhog day of a season for Arsenal. You know the one: where they start okay and then crumble around Christmas, only then to exit the cups before the business end and then find themselves behind Spurs, then in the final chapter the struggle to claw it back begins.

This is fine, but when it becomes…
