Arsenal captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has stressed that the lack of trophies won’t make him an unsuccessful striker. The Gabon international has netted 20 goals for the Gunners this season but he was recently guilty of squandering a late scoring chance as the club bowed out of the Europa League against Olympiacos at the round of 32 stage.

Arsenal legend Ian Wright has said that he has been baffled by Unai Emery’s decision to ignore Mesut Ozil during the opening stages of the Premier League season. The German star has made just two appearances since the start of the campaign and just one of those have come in the English top-flight.

As such, there is already speculation that Ozil could head through the exit door at the turn of the year and Wright is baffled with the situation surrounding the Gunners’ top earner, he told Premier League productions: “I want to see more offensive players on the pitch in positions where we’re going to be able to hurt teams. I don’t know what’s happened with Ozil, I’m not sure that we as a club can afford to have a player of that calibre, paying what they’re paying him, which is always going to be mentioned, not even in the squad, not even there at all. So that one baffles me.”

Arsenal boss Unai Emery has said that Rob Holding is not far away from making a Premier League comeback with the club. The 24-year-old has already made a couple of appearances in the Cup competitions since his return from a knee injury but so far, Emery has been reluctant to play him in the English top-flight.

Speaking in a press conference, Emery said that Kieran Tierney and Holding are not far off from representing the Gunners in the Premier League. He added that he is content with the performances of David Luiz and Sokratis at the heart of the backline but Holding will get the opportunity to impress as there are plenty of games remaining in the season, he told: “Kieran and Rob (Holding) are closer to playing. I think Rob Holding can play 90 minutes with a good performance. Now we are also working with David Luiz and Sokratis, but really, I am very happy. He is going to have a chance to play a lot of matches.”

Arsenal boss Unai Emery has spoken fondly about the progress of Matteo Guendouzi and believes he can develop into a top quality midfielder. The Frenchman was an unknown after he joined the Gunners from Lorient last season but he has since made 50 appearances for the club across all competitions and has become a regular starter under Emery.

Arsenal manager Unai Emery has insisted that Laurent Koscielny remains an important player within the first-team squad despite his recent antics. The Frenchman has served the Gunners for the past nine seasons but he has recently ignored to travel for the pre-season tour of the United States with the aim of securing a fresh challenge elsewhere.

Speaking to reporters, Emery said that he had spoken to the Frenchman on multiple occasions at the club’s Colney base but the defender decline to travel with the team. He added that the 33-year-old has one year remaining on his contract with the club and he is hopeful that the captain continues to represent the team next season.

Colombia international David Ospina has refused to confirm whether he would remain with Napoli beyond the current campaign. The goalkeeper is currently with the Serie A side on a season-long loan from Arsenal and he has so far made 23 appearances for the Naples outfit across all competitions.

Speaking to Goal.com, Ospina indicated that he would like to play regularly at the Italian outfit, but always won’t be the case. When stressed on his future, Ospina acknowledged that he would like to stay put in Naples, although a decision over the same has yet to be made, he said: “Not always playing is a particular situation, one would always like to play. We are always ready, however, when the coach asks us to be. There are two other goalkeepers wh

Sky Sports reporter Guillem Balague believes Christian Eriksen is waiting to make the move to Real Madrid and that could be the prime reason behind turning down a new contract at Tottenham Hotspur. The Denmark international has evolved into one of Spurs’ constants in the attack front, but his future with the club is hanging in the balance with his existing deal due to expire in 15 months’ time.

Speaking on his official YouTube channel, Balague said that Eriksen could be eager to make the switch to the Bernabeu and that has played some part in declining a new contract at Spurs, he quipped: “Christian Eriksen hasn’t signed a new contract for Spurs. Real Madrid showed interest in Harry Kane and in Eriksen, at least a year and a half ago, and Harry Kane signed a new contract after that and Eriksen hasn’t.

Denmark international Christian Eriksen has said that Tottenham Hotspur can reach the next level in terms of performances when they make the switch to their new stadium. The north London club were initially expected to begin their season at the newly-constructed homeground, but delays have meant that their opening game has been delayed until April 3 where they are scheduled to host Crystal Palace.

Speaking to Ekstra Bladet, Eriksen said: "I've been looking at it and it's an exceptional stadium that will mean a lot to the club for many years to come. I think without a doubt it helps to take the club to take the next step. We have been waiting for a while at the stadium after all, so it will be great to get back to the stadium that will be our home for the next many years."

Arsenal manager Unai Emery has confirmed that the central defensive duo of Laurent Koscielny and Sokratis Papastathopoulos will remain on the sidelines for the Premier League clash against Cardiff City on Tuesday night. The pairing suffered minor injuries during the FA Cup fourth round defeat to Manchester United and this has left the Gunners with just two recognised central defenders in the form of Shkodran Mustafi and Konstantinos Mavropanos.

Speaking to reporters on Monday, Emery confirmed that both Koscielny and Sokratis are out for the Bluebirds’ clash, although the former could return for the weekend after avoiding a jaw fracture against United. However, Sokratis is unlikely to be available for the next three weeks with him requiring time to recuperate from the ankle injury.
