The former team of the French striker finished second in the Premier League for the third season in a row, this time the title of Liverpool lost, while the two years earlier was against Manchester City.
The Gunners have again become regular title challengers under Mikel Arteta in the competition, while they now also make deep runs in the last phases of the Champions League.
The lack of silverware from Arsenal, Domestic or European, however, has led to arteta the time of the Spanish manager criticized the leadership without tangible success.

At that time, Manchester United struggled for consistency in the competition, but have been to five finals – two Europe competitions, two FA Cups and the League Cup – and have won two trophies.
And Gunners icon Henry believes that it is correct that questions are asked about the lack of success of the club under Arteta after a huge edition of money on transfers.
Speaking on the stick to the football podcast, brought to you by Sky Bet, Henry said: “I understand that in the beginning [for Mikel Arteta] You arrive and it is not your team, you need at least three or four transfer windows to change everything you want.

“Now, for the past three years, Arsenal has been in a situation in which they should have taken at least one cup or a final.
“Manchester United has played in five finals in the last five years, the United States that everyone laughs at, while for Arsenal, no final reaches for Arsenal.
“So I understand that when people ask the question:” You should definitely compete for a trophy? ”
“I am not saying that I am disappointed about Arsenal, but it is normal for people now to raise questions about what the team is doing.”
Against the fans of the Emirates after their last home game of the season – a 1-0 win over Newcastle – Arteta urged fans to continue to support the team so that they could make their trophy dream.
He said: “We had a dream. It was to be here today or in a week and bring big trophies for you. Unfortunately we couldn't do it for many circumstances.
“But make sure that haunting a dream does not become blurry and you do not see what these players, this staff and this football club do. And make sure you follow the dream with enthusiasm and positivity next season.
“What I have said before is that we have to start making our own history here in this stadium. We certainly started this season. There is much more to come. We have to do it all together. It will not be easy.
“But this group of players, I tell you, they are hungry, they are the quality, they have the talent and we come again. We have to reset first …
“But before we do that – please – because I know what these players have experienced, this season, this season.
“Every other club in this position would end in a position that you can't even dream of, so please say the players, say the staff and thank you all for your support.”
