Report card for the season

On-pitch moment of the season

The comeback from 2-0 down and with 10 men to win 3-2 in the last minute at Bolton Wanderers was blistering

Off-pitch moment of the season

The announcement that the club's former vice-chairman David Dein had sold his 14.58% stake to the Russian steel magnate Alisher Usmanov, prompting fears of a hostile takeover bid

Player who must not be sold

Cesc Fábregas, the club's best player and the heartbeat of this side

Greatest goal

Emmanuel Adebayor's glorious spin and volley from distance at White Hart Lane to complete the rout of Tottenham

Most embarrassing moment

William Gallas kicking an advertising hoarding, refusing to acknowledge James McFadden's last-minute penalty and then staging a bizarre sit-in protest at the final whistle at St Andrew's

Effect of manager's shopping

Eduardo da Silva had his leg mangled, an injury which helped expose Arsène Wenger's decision not to strengthen in the midwinter transfer window

The season in five words

Scintillating until squad depth exposed

Five-point action plan for the summer

Retain Fábregas; Strengthen central defence; Find a goalkeeper to challenge Manuel Almunia; Unearth a striker; hand Theo Walcott a starting place
