EMIRATES CUP: Six Star Arsenal Demolish Lyon
A blistering first half display saw Arsenal score four first half goals as they swept Lyon aside in a 6-0 win in the Emirates Cup.
Olivier Giroud opened the scoring, diverting a Mesut Ozil cross beyond Lyon goalkeeper Anthony Lopes before the Frenchman turned provider for Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain. Youngster Alex Iwobi added a third, completing a well-worked team goal, before the impressive Aaron Ramsey latched on to an Ozil pass to finish from close range.
Ozil added a fifth after the break, thumping a low strike beyond Lopes and into the bottom corner, and Santi Cazorla rounded off the scoring with a free kick late on.

Petr Cech Can Help Us Win The Premier League - Oxlade Chamberlain
Arsenal midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is convinced that the signing of Petr Cech can help the Gunners win the Premier League title. Cech joined Arsene Wenger's side from Chelsea on June 29 having played only seven Premier League games for the Blues last season after falling behind Thibaut Courtois as the club's undisputed No.1.
And Oxlade-Chamberlain believes the north Londoners have acquired one of the top goalkeepers in the world, insisting that he has the title-winning mentality to help push the Gunners towards a league triumph.
He told the club's official website: "He's been one of the best goalkeepers in the world since I've been watching football. I can't really remember two goalkeepers who have been better than him.

How The FA Cup Trophy Saved Arsene Wenger's Job - Mikel Arteta
Arsenal midfielder Mikel Arteta said winning the FA Cup final saved Arsene Wenger's job. Wenger's long-standing position at the north London club was in jeopardy after nine years without a trophy, before the FA Cup breakthrough in May rewarded the fans' patience.
Arsenal trailed 2-0 early against underdogs Hull City, before launching a brilliant come-from-behind win - eventually triumphing 3-2 in extra time. Captain Arteta said Wenger's job was saved by their victory.

ARSENAL: Wenger Hails Chamberlain As Gunners Top League Again
Arsene Wenger believes Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain proved his capabilities in a central role as the midfielder’s double fired Arsenal to a 2-0 win over Crystal Palace. Oxlade-Chamberlain, who was making his first Premier League start since August 17, made sure of the points with a low strike under Palace goalkeeper Julian Speroni on 73 minutes.
Wenger deployed the 20-year-old in a central midfield role, and believes Oxlade-Chamberlain can have a future in that position - despite largely being recognised as a winger.
"I always believed that he could play wide and central, he has proven me right today by scoring the goals," the Frenchman said.
