On Sunday, Mesut Özil reached 50 Premier League assists with his set-piece delivery for Shkodran Mustafi, but how does that rank among the club’s best ever creative players?

Joel Campbell was named in Monday night’s squad for Real Betis and Kelechi Nwakali scored an impressive brace, as eight Arsenal loanees featured this weekend.

On Sunday, Henrikh Mkhitaryan scored one and assisted one as Arsenal beat Watford, and fans were quick to point out Alexis Sanchez’s comparatively disappointing performances.

Raul Sanllehi hinted in an Arsenal Fans Forum meeting that the club could be set for further changes in the coming months, amid rumours about Arsene Wenger’s future.

Arsene Wenger told the media he doesn’t know how bad Shkodran Mustafi’s injury is just yet, and the club will have to run tests on Monday.

Arsenal put in another good performance in their weekend victory over Watford, winning consecutive games for only the second time this calendar year.

Arsenal are in a surprisingly commanding position in their Europa League tie against AC Milan, so let’s take a look at who else could cause the team problems if they finish the job on Thursday.

Jakub Jankto’s agent has revived rumours of a possible transfer to Arsenal, admitting the club are “certainly contenders” along with AC Milan.

Napoli are planning to give Jorginho a new contract in an attempt to prevent Arsenal, Liverpool or Manchester United from signing him, according to reports in Italy.

Arsene Wenger seems to have had enough of certain opposition players this season, and isn’t holding back as much he used to.

Earlier this week, Jack Wilshere told the media “things have changed” in his contract situation, and he’s “no closer” to a new deal, so what’s the cause of the problem?

Ben Sheaf says he’s finding his loan spell with League Two side Stevenage FC more of a physical challenge, now that’s he’s playing with an older age group.

In recent seasons, Arsenal have started to settle into a pattern of making a late flourish when all seems lost, but then performing even more poorly in the next campaign.

It’s fairly clear right now that Arsenal’s squad is far from perfect, but which positions in particular do the club need to look at in the summer?

Sead Kolasinac says he came to Arsenal to play against the world’s best players, not necessarily alongside them.

Linklaters and Deloitte are both trying to avoid blame in Lady Bracewell-Smith’s lawsuit, relating to the sale of her 15.9 per cent stake in Arsenal to Stan Kroenke.

Stan and Josh Kroenke won’t make an emotionally-driven decision on the future of Arsene Wenger, despite the emotive nature of football and its fans.

Atletico Madrid are now the favourites to sign Max Meyer on a free transfer this summer, according to reports.

The optimum squad age to be successful is somewhere between 26 and 27 years old, according to a study by the CIES Football Observatory.

At some point in the next year and a half, Arsene Wenger is expected to step down from his role as Arsenal manager, but who might end up leaving with him?
