The Spaniard saw his side emerge as surprise title contenders and even headed into the final weeks of the campaign with a healthy five-point advantage over Manchester City. But the Gunners blew that lead by dropping points in three consecutive matches against Liverpool, West Ham and Southampton: a run which presented City with the perfect opportunity to retain their title. And Arteta has now admitted that Arsenal's late implosion left him questioning his role during the early portion of his summer break. Speaking ahead of Sunday's Community Shield final, Arteta said: "The first few weeks, very tough.

It took a big reflection, but the answer is yes and I feel with a lot of energy and positiveness." Arsenal's nightmare run at the business end of the campaign proved to be fatal to their hopes of claiming a first domestic crown since 2004. And Arteta admitted that his side "should have won" the trio of games that ended up dashing their title dreams. Join the debate!

He added: "We had games that we didn't win, especially the three draws that we had when momentum shifted. We should have won those games and we had enough to win those games - it was in our hands.
