by Leave a comment

 

Arsenal have a very good record at home in the Premier League this season, but their away from is a clause for concern and it could be an hindrance to their quest to finish in the top four and return to Champions League football for the first time in five years.

The Gunners have the best home record in the Premier League this season alongside league leaders Manchester City with 22 points from nine games. Arsenal and City have dropped just five points at home this season. In addition to their impressive points haul at home, Arsenal have kept six clean sheets from nine home games to highlight their defensive strength at the Emirates Stadium and they have four straight clean sheets in the league at the moment and five straight clean sheets in all competitions presently.

Arsenal are already looking forward and are now trying to find a replacement for their misfiring striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang as they want to sign a younger, more hungry striker who can lead the line for them starting from next season. Aubameyang has had a difficult time trying to rediscover his goal scoring touch and his best form since signing a new contract extension at the Emirates Stadium a couple of months ago and after being very patient for too long, manager Mikel Arteta and the club’s board and fans are said to have lost patience in the Ganon international striker. French’s triker Alexandre Lacazette is also not helping matters and he’s also been misfiring recently.

The two strikers have been tipped to leave the north London club and look for another clubs but after not doing so in the summer, they could be doing so in January. A couple of players were allowed to leave the club in the summer and David Luiz and Willian were the two big-name players that were allowed to leave as they were deemed surplus to requirements by Arteta. It’s been particularly hard to let go of Aubameyang and Lacazette because no club has come to inquire about signing them and a huge issue for any club willing to sign them would be their wage demands.

The race to sign PSV Eindhoven star Donyell Kallen has continued to heat up as Arsenal have now reportedly included themselves in the race to acquire the player’s signature.

Mallen was a bright star for PSV last season and it is only normal for him to be linked with a move away from the Dutch Eredivisie club. His fine performances last season also earned him a call-up to the Netherlands national team and he also had a part in the Dutch team’s run in the 2020 UEFA Euros tournament. However, he may not be lining up for PSV next season, especially if more clubs join the queue to sign him this summer.
