- No goals were scored after this point and the match went into penalty shootouts.

It’s a sign of Arsenal’s decline that they sign players that rival clubs consider not good enough.
When Chelsea, United, City and Liverpool are wrangling for the same players, Arsenal are just signing mid-table players without any competition. #CFC #MUFC #MCFC #LFC

Got a feeling preseason is what’ll prove to be the difference when Arsenal take on Man City in the #BPL season opener – the former’s main stars would have had all of it whereas the latter’s would have had virtually none.Don’t forget the dreaded Champions Curse as well.#AFC ??
