Arsenal host Wolves in their final game of the Premier League season this Sunday and whilst it won't include a trophy lift as many would have hoped, the day will likely be a celebration of a step forward for the club. The campaign has seen the Gunners push Manchester City all the way for the league and ultimately return to the Champions League for next season.
While this isn't the end goal for a club like Arsenal, with Mikel Arteta wanting to see his side win trophies and titles, it's still a dramatic step forward from last year. The pressure will be back on next season, there isn't the surprise factor of the Gunners being at the top and there's the weight of expectation - something Arteta has labelled a privilege rather than a burden.
Heading into the final game, the manager has urged his players to end the season with some flair, saying in his pre-match press conference: "Now is about finishing the season in style and providing a great performance and a victory in front of our people. Show our gratitude and receive a lot of the incredible energy that they have given us throughout the season and start to build for the next season.
