What do they need to do to get over the hump? The answer: nothing. Arsenal has a core of young players in Denilson, Samir Nasri, Aaron Ramsey, Theo Walcott, Jack Wilshere, Nicklas Bendtner that will be able to challenge for year's to come. Every single one of these players is twenty-three or younger. Combine those guys with Fabregas, Van Persie, and Arshavin and you have a team that can compete for a Premier League Title. They just need time to develop and learn Wenger's system. Of course there are going to be doubts surrounding this team until they can get the "monkey off their back", and every summer their are rumors that captain Cesc Fabregas is going to return to his home country and the academy that raised him at Barcelona. But, even if Fabregas does leave his transfer fee would give Arsene Wenger funds to bring in several quality players. Wenger is famous for buying talent when it is cheap and selling players for a huge profit. If Arsenal can spend a little money in bringing in players to strengthen a weak defensive back four, and bring in a new goalie, then Arsenal will be fine if fans just give Wenger one or two more years to work his magic. I feel comfortable predicting that within the next three years Arsenal will be walking off the field in May celebrating a Premier League title.
