The Sleeping Giant

The Arsenal football clubs has been always a runner for the Premier League titles. The team has a specific style which is Arsene Wenger`s trademark. Since the French manager took the team over in 1996th the Arsenal has won three Premier League titles and four FA cup trophies.
The Frenchmen has brought class and finesse to the London club. It is well-known for the extended ball possession and many goal occasions. Every year Arsenal is getting ready for the season with a lot of hopes. But actually the London club hasn`t won anything in the last seven years. The dream of Arsene Wenger is to win the Champions League and he was ready to departure from the Arsenal club just to achieve his desire. His name was linked with teams such as Barcelona, Real Madrid and etc. Arsenal was close to the biggest trophy in Europe during the 2005/2006 campaign. They lost the final against the newborn Barcelona `dream team`.
Years have gone by without titles and the Arsenal fans are anxious about the new 2012/2013 season. The campaign has started too bad for the `gunners`. They have lost another captain- van Persie was stolen by Manchester United and it seems that the `stingy professor` would have problems again,    searching for new players during the season. In the past few years the Arsenal FC did not have enough luck needed to finish the seasons with a dignity. They have struggled with many injuries and it is noticeable that since Wenger was approached as manager 44 players left the London team. Some of the departures were very painful for the fans- such as the Fabregas` and van Persie`s. 
Nevertheless, the football maniacs want more from the magic Arsenal football. The team is like a sleeping giant. It is now or never thing
