It’s been a miserable season for Arsenal, with their poor form continuing with a 3-0 home defeat against Liverpool over the weekend.
The Gunners barely put up a fight against Jurgen Klopp’s side, who strolled to a 3-0 victory at the Emirates Stadium to improve on their own recent patchy form.

These are worrying times for Arsenal, however, who looked every bit the mid-table side they’re proving to be as they continue to sit in 10th place in the Premier League table.
It’s interesting to see how much longer Arteta will last if things don’t improve, with these damning stats from Opta’s Orbinho illustrating just how bad Arsenal have been at home this season in particular…
Arsenal have lost six Premier League home games this season – that's more than in the whole of the last two seasons put together (5).
It's also the most home league defeats since 1994-95 (also 6).
They lost 7 in 1992-93

Arsenal Premier League home games they have failed to score in
2016-17 – 1?
2017-18 – 1?
2018-19 – 1?
2019-20 – 1?
2020-21 – 7?— Orbinho (@Orbinho) April 5, 2021
These numbers are unacceptable for a club of Arsenal’s size, especially after Arteta has actually been given a fair amount of license to bring in his own players.
Big names like Thomas Partey, Willian, Gabriel Magalhaes and Martin Odegaard have been brought in by Arteta, and it’s hard to imagine there isn’t a manager out there who couldn’t do more with this squad of players.

In reply to Hugh
Well said.
This rookie manager chose to sell Martinez and talks about rebuilding Arsenal. He is shutting out Saliba, Martinelli, Guendouzi and talks about character.
Not being able to recognise the talent of Martinez , in his own squad , makes him an absolute useless coach.
May be Martinez was the best thing that we had to rise up that table and qualify for ecl.
Poor , poor Arteta.
Arteta is good compare to any coach but he need to give us europa
he is a good coach but not good enough for what arsenal needs right now, the team is down the team needs someone of experience which arteta does not have im pretty sure henry would be sacked by now if he was in charge the only special thing about arteta i that he is close friends with guardiola
Arsenal needs a much more experienced manager to read the game rapidly so as to take rapid actions and not waiting for the half time. And, experienced managers have contacts with many players!
Don’t blame him blame the arsenal board
