When you look at Arsenal over the past few years, their biggest criticism has been the defence and for all the attacking talent on show at the Emirates, leaks at the back have proved to be their ultimate undoing.While because of this, their latest managerial incumbent has perhaps tilted the balance the other way and with Mikel Arteta making a rather strong case for his defence, it has arguably come to the detriment of their attack line. However, on the evidence of their Premier League goals against record this season, it is fair to say the ends have justified the means and after conceding just 25 in 24 outings, it equates to an average of 1.04 efforts breaching their net per

Andrey Arshavin – Arsenal’s Frustrating Russian Genius
On the back of a mighty impressive Euro 2008, Andrey Arshavin joined Arsenal in February 2009. The Russian’s move to the Emirates Stadium was undoubtedly the most dramatic saga of that transfer window. He signed for Arsenal after overcoming obstacles like wage demands, transfer deadlines and even a certain Vladimir Putin. Arsene Wenger was very keen to add Arshavin to his squad and when the £15million deal was eventually confirmed Arsenal fans were justifiably excited. The 27-year-old was a player suited to Wenger’s style of free-flowing possession football: a two-footed technician who could dribble past opposition with ease, create chances with accurate passing and score. He wore the No. 23 shirt, last worn by Sol Campbell. However, during his stint at

Mesut Ozil – The rise and fall of a maestro
From being one of the best playmakers in the world to not even being in Arsenal’s Europa League squad against Vitoria, Mesut Ozil’s fall from grace at the North London club echoes that of a Greek tragedy. The German has appeared just thrice for the Gunners this season in all competitions while subsequently being subbed off in each. The attacking midfielder was widely considered as the most talented player of German football’s golden generation with a record five German Player of the Year awards. He was instrumental as Germany won the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil. After a dramatic deadline day move to the Emirates, the German was Arsenal’s best player in his first two seasons with the Gunners,

David Rocastle – Remembering a True Arsenal Legend
On 31 March 2001, when Arsenal’s new No.7 scored a gem of a goal in the North London derby match with Tottenham Hotspur at Highbury, the crowd tearfully remembered one of their favourite sons, who used to wear the same No.7 jersey for the Gunners. Just before the match, more than 38,000 people observed a minute's silence without the faintest interruption after reports came in that David “Rocky” Rocastle had died in the early hours of 31 March 2001, aged 33. Born in Lewisham, south-east London, Rocastle, a fast, skilled, powerful outside right was one of three players from the same area who played a crucial part in the Gunners' success in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Rocastle joined
Roy Keane vs Patrick Vieira – The Premier League’s Greatest Rivalry
One of the most debated topics in football is the rivalry between Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi. Both players always show respect to one another and claim competition is healthy in pushing them to perform to their full potential. Their rivalry is rather tame in comparison to Roy Keane and Patrick Vieira's legendary battles against each other on the pitch. For much of the early 1990s Manchester United dominated the Premier League, winning four of the five titles between 93 and 97. Central to that success was their domineering and relentless midfielder from Ireland. Keane’s drive, determination and all-round excellence established him as the best midfielder in the country. When Eric Cantona suddenly retired in 1997, Keane was named United captain by Alex
