Arsenal
Arsenal
Arsenal have played in the top division of English football since 1913, which is the longest unbroken run in the history of English football. Arsenal are the only team to have finished a Premier League season undefeated (2003/04).
- Stadium: Emirates Stadium
- Stadium Capacity: 59,867
- Location: North London
- Founded: 1886
- Nickname: The Gunners
- Manager: Unai Emery
- Kit: Red shirts with white sleeves and white shorts
Arsenal was formed in 1886 and was the first club from the south of England to join the Football League in 1893. Arsenal hold the record for the longest unbroken record in the top division of football. The Gunners have played at the top level since 1913. Here are some of the highlights:
- First Division Champions: 13 times
- FA Cup Winners: 13 times (a record)
- League Cup Winners: 1986/87 & 1992/93
- UEFA Cup Winners: 1993/94
- Premier League best finish: Winners in 1997/98, 2001/02 & 2003/04
The Manager
Unai Emery took over from Arsene Wenger in May 2018. The 2018/19 season will be Arsenal’s first with a new manager for twenty years. Emery played most of his career as a midfielder in the Spanish second division. The Spaniard has been much more successful as a manager. He won the Europa League three times with Sevilla before taking over at Paris St. Germain where he won the French League title. 2018/19 will be Emery’s first in the Premier League.
Three to Watch
The Arsenal squad is full of international talent from Petr Cech (Czech Republic) in goal to Henrikh Mkhitaryan (Armenia) in midfield and Alex Iwobi (Nigeria) in attack. Here are three players to watch out for in the Premier League this season:
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang
Arsenal paid Borussia Dortmund a club record fee for Aubameyang in January 2018. The striker from Gabon has had half a season to settle in at Arsenal and will now be looking to score goals in the Premier League like he did in Germany with Dortmund. Aubameyang is one of the world’s top forwards and has explosive pace. He was African Player of the Year in 2015.
Alexandre Lacazette
Lacazette is another exciting forward. Arsenal signed him from Lyon in France for a then club record fee. The French striker is fast, has great dribbling skills and is good with both feet. Lacazette was Arsenal's top scorer with 14 goals in his first season in the Premier League, but will be looking to break the 20-goal mark this season.
Mesut Ozil
Ozil has been at Arsenal for five years since his record move from Real Madrid and has probably been Arsenal’s key player throughout that period. Ozil has been named Germany’s Player of the Year five times and was instrumental in Germany’s World Cup win in 2014. Ozil will, once again, be key to providing the assists for Arsenal's attacking players.
Last season
Arsenal finished sixth in the Premier League last season, their lowest position for over twenty years. This prompted a change in manager and a fresh approach under ex-PSG manager, Unai Emery. Arsenal’s top scorer was Alexandre Lacazette with 17 goals in all competitions.
Prediction 2019/20: 6th
Arsenal will be looking to break back into the top four and claim Champions League football next season, but it may be a year of consolidation under their new manager. With a new manager and many new players, it could be difficult for Arsenal to find enough consistency to win the Premier League. However, with the players they have, they will hope for a good run in the Europa League or one of the domestic cup competitions.

I've started admire Arsenal since than I saw the team led by Dennis Bergkamp. Arsene Wenger and his squad called "The invincibles" in 2003–04 was beautiful to see.

I have been supporting the Arsenal since 2004. I spent the time to watch Arsenal match in every weekend during the premier league season as an oversea fan. Thierry Henry who is my favourite player all time. He scored 228 goals for all games and still remain top goal scorers in Arsenal. We have to fight the top four position and qualify the Champion league is the main target for this season. I agree with your prediction which is same as mine.

That was had been end of season 2009-2010 (i don’t remember those matches, but the thrill of the game delighted me). My favourite player was Cesc Fabregas. His action and character was perfect. But all changing. Interesting and promising players come and go. Even the best manager of the club Arsene Wenger leaved Arsenal.Every year, I believe that Arsenal will win the Premier League title. And new manager of Arsenal Unai Emeri can get it. I like his tactic of exhausting an opponent.

I have been following Arsenal for the past 10 years. This season I've watched all their matches. I think they will be finishing 6th this season. Arsenal doesn't spent the same amount of money as clubs like man united, man city and Liverpool spent. More often than not, premier league champion will be the club which spend more money.

When i was about 8, my dad and I watched a football match at a tea shop . That was my very first time of watching the football match and I remembered the yellow kit of the Arsenal Team. There was a logo of O2 infront of the team jersey . Later, I watched most of the games Arsenal played & really enjoyed them.
There are a lot of my favourite Arsenal players. Although my all time favourite is Henry , I'll put Pires & Ljungberg on the same level as Henry.
I think , in this season , they'll finish in the 4th place. Or I hope :P
If there is any mistake in my English language, don't b bother to correct them or suggest. Thank you :D
