The Gunners have now failed to score in their last three games – two Carabao Cup clashes with Liverpool, and no teeth FA Cup defeat to Nottingham Forest.

And Partey’s firing tonight comes on Arsenal’s red card numbers under Arteta to a huge number FOURTEEN.

Gabriel’s departure on January 1 also helped Arsenal set an unwanted record of First team in Premier League to receive 100 red cards Prem.
