Arsenal have scored the opening goal of the game in each of their last 12 matches
13 out of Arsenal's 15 goals this season have been either scored or assisted by British players
@JoshJJames78

Mind that English Media

[aleumdance]

Arsenal have won 10 straight away games

[Sina]

was thinking about it and found this via @Akolaar

-Arsenal have conceded 3 goals from open play in their last 15 matches. Be damned if the defense doesn't still get criticised though.

-In those 15 games, we've conceded goals from 5 penalties and 2 free-kicks

[Sri]

^^ We've also had our share of luck, Sina. Yes, we have been defending much much better since Per-Arteta-Kos clicked, but we've not really been water-tight.

Even disregarding the blip that was the Villa game, we've had some hair-brained moments like Per/Szcz last night.

And we're starting to make a habit of conceding a penalty each game - which is resulting from defensive errors in the first place!

[Sina]

true that
still interesting stat
and after some of defending that we saw earlier last season
to find a formula and improve that is admirable
was still work in progress before Arteta got injured

[Sina]

Jose Antonio Reyes (2004/5) and Wayne Rooney (2011/12) are the only players to have scored in each of the first five games of a PL season. Will Olivier Giroud and Daniel Sturridge join them?

Arsenal’s Incredible Away Run

8 - Arsenal tied their record of 8 away wins in League play today (2001-2002: Leicester, Blackburn, Everton, Newcastle, Villa, Charlton, Notlob, Man U; 2013-2014: Swansea, West Brom, Fulham, QPR, Newcastle, Villa, Fulham, Sunderland, Swansea.)
12 - Arsenal have actually won 12 away games in a row if you count all competitions, this is the longest Arsenal away win streak that I can find (Bayern, Swansea, West Brom, Fulham, QPR, Newcastle, Fener, Fulham, Sunderland, Marseille, West Brom, Swansea.)
23 - Arsenal have scored 23 goals in those 12 games
142 - Arsenal have taken 142 shots in those 12 games
12 - That’s an average of 12 shots per game for Arsenal
16 - That’s also an average conversion (goals/shots) of 16% for Arsenal
6 - Arsenal have allowed just 6 goals in those 12 games
172 - Arsenal allowed 172 shots in those 12 games
14 - That’s an Average of 14 shots allowed per game for Arsenal in those games
3 - Three of those goals in those away games have been penalties (West Brom, Sunderland, Marseille)
2 - That means the opposition are converting just TWO percent of their shots from open play against Arsenal in away games

For some context…

13 - In the last three seasons of League play, Arsenal have converted about 13% of their shots into goals
18 - In their most efficient offensive season (since 2000), Arsenal scored 18% of their shots (season 2004-2005)
18 - This season Arsenal are scoring about 18% of their shots
1 - Arsenal are the only team to score in all six of their Premier League matches this season.
8 - In their best defensive season (2003-2004), Arsenal allowed the opposition to score about 8% of their shots
11 - This season Arsenal are allowing the opposition to score about 11% of their shots
8 - Since the Villa game, Arsenal have only allowed Premier League opposition to score on 8% of their shots

69 - Passes by Ramsey²
3 - Key passes by Ramsey¹
1 - Passes by Ramsey that should have been Özil’s first goal
7 - *bleep* tackles by Ramsey, for the second *bleep* game in a *bleep* row, what the *bleep* is going on with this *bleep* kid???¹
7 - Ball recoveries by Ramsey
1 - Ball recovery off a loose pass that led to the perfectly slotted ball for Gnabry to score his first ever Arsenal goal, but it wasn’t counted as a ball recovery
3 - Villa goals scored against Man City
1 - Jose Mourinho, the Special Once, blathering on about “foreigners diving in the Premier League” after his team barely eeked a draw today against Tottenham
2 - and Arsenal are 2 points clear at the top of the table, baby!
