Arsenal have more red cards than goals and points since beating Man Utd almost two months ago as Prem slide continues


ARSENAL have more red cards than goals and points since their last Premier League win nearly two months ago.

Gabriel Magalhaes became the latest Gunner to be dismissed on Wednesday, picking up two yellow cards for clumsy challenges in the 1-1 draw with Southampton.

It was the THIRD red card Arsenal have picked up in six games.

And the Gunners are also without a win in that time too, with their last victory coming against Manchester United at the start of November.

That was 45 days ago, and Arsenal’s record since makes for dire reading.

The Gunners started with a 3-0 defeat to Aston Villa before drawing 0-0 at Leeds.

They were then beaten 2-1 by Wolves and followed that with a 2-0 derby defeat to Spurs.

Burnley became the latest side to beat Arsenal in a 1-0 win on Sunday.

And Southampton’s Emirates draw saw the Gunners flop once again.

In total, Arsenal have managed just two goals while picking up two points.

And three red cards in the same period is sure to raise disciplinary concerns among disgruntled fans.

Indeed, since Arteta’s first Premier League game on Boxing Day 2019, Arsenal have received SEVEN red cards.

That’s FOUR more than any other top flight English side.

And it’s starting to look like an issue that needs to be addressed by Arteta immediately.
