In the end, the emphatic thrashing of Wigan was all an en-thrilling league contest, filled with thrills and turns, needed to separate the teams and the blues more than deserve their win. For a football team almost marred by Terry-gate, they recovered superbly and literally went on a rampage in the last 8 weeks. And Chelsea offers a frightening prospect in the coming seasons. No one can deny Ancelotti's tactical astuteness and his eye for talented players, which buoyed by the ravishing wealth of a certain Russian, create an alchemy that should deliver a stronger Chelsea. Pato (and troubled Kaka) can't be ruled out of a Bridge switch.
But this season can so easily be remembered for the unedifying fortunes of Arsenal FC. Mortally dented by injury woes, the gunners had a bad season based on their potentials. At the start, they looked liked a dream team and I hope next season should provide a better opportunity for the beautiful game to flourish at the Emirates, but grit, experience and dexterity at the back would be essential. The summer signing should give a fair preview.
It is quite interesting that as of now, the gunners should ideally be looking to caught up with Manchester United and Chelsea, but are rather keeping their sight behind, at Tottenham and Manchester City, maybe Aston Villa. Tottenham is sure to get stronger and City might just. Right now, the overwhelming pre-occupation is the world cup. See you there.
