Don't count the chickens before they hatch? And only today then i truly celebrate beating MAN CIty

Sometimes football is so cliche and predictably unpredictable it makes you laugh (Half-heartedly at best).

When i wrote on the match which the Gooners had won against Man City, my heart's unbridled emotion for the beauty of that win were hammered down as you will to mere positive anticipation.

Because i knew we would not have done our jobs well unless we take all 3points against a struggling Wolves side.

Alas, misfortune and steady passing from our team saw us through the tie and now if you are an Arsenal fan, be proud look DOWN the table and see the fruits of this year's hard labour by Wenger and his team's spirit.

But be humbled and look UP for the inspiration lost that echoes regret in many Arsenal fans of what could have been had we played consistently when we were hit with the injuries.

All in all, this is a good transition year for the Arsenal. If anything, there are alot of positives to look forward to in the next season. Mainly, Rosicky being our latest "Additional Signing". It is fair to say that we have for the first time seen his best in a long time.

We have unearthed two wondrous talents, Ryo Miyaichi and Alex Oxlade Chamberlain. Finally found a steady pairing for CBs. TV5 and LK6. My hero is especially Koscielny6 who is an absolute rock. He is much maligned when he first came here having sent off twice and many shaky tackling. But if you really watched those games tactically he was oftne left short by Squillaci and Djourou and had to cover both sides of the box.

Wenger still has the hunger in him, none the more tested than this season which he has averted the "disaster" at Arsenal. Played a whole season without arguably our most important player after Fabregas in MF. Jack Wilshere. Try telling Liverpool fans that S. Gerard wont play for the whole season and hear the moans already. Frankly, we coped without him but he is our closest replacement to Cesc4 without a doubt. Recover well - Wilshere!

RVP could be joined by Podolski in next season. Notice i didnt bother with will RVP still be here? He is Arsenal all the way. In short there are so many positives so be proud Gooners.

And the last thing to be proud of is 125yrs - Forward. Clearly, despite all the press maulings Arsenal got this season. We are moving forward and through the same ethos for 125yrs. Victoria Concordia Crescit - Victory Through Harmony. If you asked me, it was purely the efforts and harmony in the squad that has battled back with charachter this year. So let's enjoy our last 5 games. And if Tottenham self-destruct anymore this season (Which they normally do at this point of the season), lets get ready for the best St Tottenringham's day ever.

Signing Off.

Long-time Arsenal Fan
