Arsenal Suffer 3-1 Loss to Leicester City in Arsene Wenger’s Penultimate Game

Arsenal lost away from home again in the Premier League after being beaten 3-1 by Leicester City at the King Power Stadium on Wednesday in the penultimate game with Arsene Wenger in charge.

Wenger saw his Gunners go a goal behind and down to 10 men on just 15 minutes when Konstantinos Mavropanos was shown a straight red card shortly after Kelechi Iheanacho had put the Foxes in front.

A Jamie Vardy penalty and a 90th-minute Riyad Mahrez goal completed Arsenal’s seventh straight Premier League away defeat.nike nfl jerseys cheap china

Away Day Shame Almost Complete for Wenger’s Arsenal cheap nfl jerseys china nike

Arsenal are going to finish in their lowest league position and with the fewest points under Wenger because of their dismal record away from home. The Gunners are still the only team in the top four leagues of English football who have failed to pick up a point on their travels in 2018.

It’s almost inconceivable a team with this much attacking talent would be so bereft of solutions on their travels. By contrast, Arsenal’s defensive woes away from the comfortable confines of the Emirates Stadium are no longer even mildly surprising.

Unfortunately for Wenger, his last game in charge of the Gunners will also be away. The trip to Huddersfield Town could be bring yet more away misery for the Frenchman and his team.

Arsenal’s Disciplinary Record Ending How It Started Under Wenger

For a manager who has steadfastly championed fair play and attractive, expansive football, Wenger has overseen a shocking disciplinary record during most of his 22 years in charge at Arsenal.

Former captain Patrick Vieira is joint holder of the Premier League record, having received eight red cards on Wenger’s watch, per Alan Tyres of the Daily Telegraph. The same source pointed out that the Gunners received 32 red cards in the decade following their last title win in the unbeaten season of 2003-04.china nike nfl jerseys cheap

Many would contend Wenger has struggled in recent years because the snarling aggression common in his early teams went by the wayside when players such as Vieira left town.

Yet on the evidence of this game, Wenger’s Gunners remain as ill-disciplined as they always were.cheap nfl nike jerseys from china
