10 worst Arsenal games of the 2012/13 season

3. Arsenal 0-2 Schalke 04, Champions League Group Stage, Emirates Stadium, 24th October 2012

(Schalke - Huntelaar 76, Afellay 86)

Arsenal produced another terrible performance, just days after the Norwich shocker, this time at home to German side Schalke. Schalke looked more dangerous throughout the game and came close to scoring on several occasions. They finally got their reward in the 76th minute, when Huntelaar beat the offside trap to score past Mannone. 10 minutes later, more calamitous defending resulted in Schalke’s second goal, scored by Ibrahim Afellay, off a cross on the right from Jefferson Farfan. What was more shambolic was that it took Arsenal precisely 92 minutes and 49 seconds to register their first shot on target, which came from 17 year old substitute Serge Gnabry.
