#1 Arsenal defensive woes continue

Arsenal v Vorskla Poltava - UEFA Europa League - Group E
Arsenal allow the visitors to help themselves to two goals at the Emirates.

Arsenal have yet failed to manage to keep a single clean sheet ever since Unai Emery took over. The North London outfit has been credited with some scintillating football, more often than not. Just as often as they've been pummeled to the ground defensively, by opposition teams and fellow supporters alike.

There was an expectation that the arrival of Emery would help tighten up that defence, and the arrivals of Sokratis and Stephan Lichsteiner was supposed to help that cause. The situation is far from ideal as Arsenal have conceded a goal in every game since the Spaniard took over.

Arsenal were cruising 4-0 with just the final quarter of an hour remaining on the clock. However, Arsenal got complacent and capitulated to some extent in the final fifteen minutes conceding twice in the same time, taking the gloss off what could've been the perfect start to life in the Europa League this season.
