Mikel Arteta has been told that he should consider replacing Gabriel Magalhaes in the summer transfer window because the defender is a liability.
Arsenal ended their four-game winless run in all competitions by twice coming from behind to beat Aston Villa 4-2 on Saturday. The Gunners scored twice in added time thanks to an Emiliano Martinez own goal after Jorginho’s long shot struck the woodwork and Gabriel Martinelli’s tap-in on the break.
After their damaging defeat against Manchester City on Wednesday, they are now back on track in the title race. However, the defence remains a concern with Arteta’s side having gone five games without a clean sheet.
