Gunners linked to several marksmen, while boss wants to end season as 'best of the rest'
-
LONDON - Mikel Arteta has no regrets over Arsenal's season, despite missing out on silverware again, and wants to finish as the "best of the rest" in the English Premier League.
The Gunners, who face third-placed Newcastle United at home on May 18, have been the closest challengers to champions Liverpool all season.
But their league form has tailed off in recent weeks, with just one win in their past six games, as they lost both legs of their Champions League semi-final to Paris Saint-Germain.
If Newcastle win at the Emirates they would leapfrog Arsenal into second with a single game remaining, though both clubs are likely to finish in the top five and qualify for next season's Champions League.
Arteta said his injury-hit team, runners-up to Manchester City for the previous two seasons, had been "phenomenal".
"You probably have regrets in your life and anything that you do in professional life as well when you haven't done your best," said the Spaniard, whose team have gone five years without winning a trophy.
