A lot of good memories. Finished 5th with 65 points, got to the League Cup semi-finals and could have gone all the way in the Europa League if we'd managed another against Fiorentina. Some brilliantly worked goals from Yakubu, Pienaar, Arteta, Osman and Cahill. Three other strikers regularly getting in on the act (Johnson, Vaughan and Anichebe). Joleon Lescott as a marauding left-back keeping Leighton Baines out of the side.
The following season we finished 5th again and got to the FA Cup final. We may not have won anything but we were a serious side back then.
