Arsenal continued their fantastic form in pre-season as they beat Thomas Tuchel’s Chelsea by a scoreline of 4-0. It was another impressive win after a transfer window that saw the Gunners bring in Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko. They will become an integral part of the revolution that Mikel Arteta is bringing to the Emirates.
A former player at the club, Arteta joined Arsenal as the club’s manager in 2019. It’s his first role as a manager after being Pep Guardiola’s understudy at Manchester City. The club’s fans have been largely pleased with the work he has done as the Spaniard has completely turned the tide around at the club.
Old, ageing players have been sold and Arsenal has signed several young stars who will shine in the future. Moreover, the USMNT might have a part to play in that.
