Benayoun unsure over future

Yossi Benayoun is happy with how his loan spell at Arsenal has worked out but is unsure whether he will leave Chelsea permanently this summer.

Benayoun joined Arsenal on a season-long loan from Chelsea last summer but was used sparingly at first by Arsene Wenger.

He openly admitted that he was becoming frustrated at his lack of first-team opportunities, but the Israeli now feels much happier after starting five of the Gunners' last six matches.

"I finish here in a good way," he told the club's official website. "In the last few months I have been more involved.

"Of course you want to play and you want to enjoy it and I think I have played a big part in the last few games. You always remember the end and I am happy with my performances in the last few months.

"Since I came to Arsenal I have always been committed to one club until the last game of the season. The only thing I want is for Arsenal to finish in third place, I don't care about anybody else.

"When I finish I will have to decide about my future. I am supposed to go back to Chelsea first and then we will see what the future holds."
