The summer transfer window is on the horizon and for plenty of clubs it'll be a chance to make some changes for the upcoming season. Arsenal will be hopeful they can close the gap on rivals Manchester City after their campaign saw them sustain a title push, but fall just short of lifting the trophy.
The following campaign provides new challenges as other teams are likely to strengthen, while the Gunners also have the return of the Champions League to consider. For Mikel Arteta, the coming weeks offer a chance of reflection, while understanding where signings will have to be made.
"I am really interested in understanding, reflecting and analysing what we have in the house and what resources we have already," the Spaniard said after the final game of the season. "How we can improve and how we can maximise and take players to a different level, the ones we haven't got everything from. Then the bonus will be to make those decisions and improve the team, but as well we don't want to lose that cohesion that exists around the team and that understanding. Hopefully we make the right decisions."
