The 2020–21 season is Arsenal's 29th season in the Premier League, their 101st consecutive season in the top flight of English football, and their 104th season in the top flight overall. In addition to the domestic league, Arsenal will participate in the FA Cup and the EFL Cup. They also qualified for the UEFA Europa League for the fourth consecutive year. Arsenal kicked off the season by defeating league champions Liverpool in the FA Community Shield.

Review

Background

Arsenal's 2019–20 campaign had seen defensive frailties and a lack of creativity lead to a disappointing eighth-place finish in the league, the club's lowest for a quarter of a century, but a successful FA Cup run and increasing promise under new coach and former cup-winning captain Mikel Arteta gave them increased optimism for the season ahead. The season had been defined by a three-month lull between March and June, caused by the COVID-19 pandemic; indeed, it was head coach Arteta's positive test that led to the season's pause, and when it returned, it was behind closed doors. The upcoming season was expected to continue in this manner. The league fixtures were released on 20 August, with Arsenal to kick off the new season away at Fulham on 12 September.[1] Soon after, the club announced plans to allow fans back into the Emirates Stadium in time for their home encounter with Sheffield United on 3 October.[2]

August

Pre-season

The club's first major transfer of the season came on 14 August, with former Chelsea winger Willian signing a three-year contract. He had previously featured 339 times for the Blues over a spell of seven years, scoring 63 goals and winning two Premier League titles, an FA Cup, a League Cup and one UEFA Europa League.[3]

Following the departure of assistant coach and former interim manager Freddie Ljungberg,[4] Arsenal permanently signed January loanees Cédric Soares and Pablo Marí,[5] with the latter arriving for a fee of £7 million. Two days later, following the players' return from a two-week break, Arsenal played their only pre-season friendly, at Stadium MK against League One side Milton Keynes Dons. Mohamed Elneny, Emile Smith Rowe, Daniel Ballard, Tyreece John-Jules, James Olayinka and William Saliba were all making their first appearances back from loan spells elsewhere; Saliba, along with a host of other youth-teamers, made his debut for the club. Arsenal took an early lead after Elneny took advantage of a poor clearance from goalkeeper Lee Nicholls with a long-range effort. A flowing team move ending with Bukayo Saka setting up Nketiah for a finish made it 2–0, before Rob Holding's own goal halved the deficit; however, a header from youth-teamer Mark McGuiness made it 3–1 late on, before Reiss Nelson scored a penalty he himself had won as the match ended 4–1 to Arsenal.[6]

Community Shield

Arsenal kicked off their season taking part in the FA Community Shield for the 24th time in their history, against last year's runaway Premier League champions Liverpool. Liverpool initially dominated the contest, but in the 12th minute, Arsenal captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang received the ball from youngster Bukayo Saka and then cut away from young Liverpool right-back Neco Williams, before bending a shot into the bottom left-hand corner. Liverpool grew back into the game and equalised late on through Takumi Minamino. The match ended 1–1 and went straight to penalties. Liverpool's Rhian Brewster was the only man to miss as Arsenal clinched their 16th Community Shield; Aubameyang scored the winning penalty.[7]

September

Arsenal's first major action of September was the £23 million signing of Lille centre-back Gabriel, with whom they had been linked for weeks. Gabriel signed after a promising 2019–20 season with the French club, his third total but his first at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy; he had spent the previous two seasons on loan at Avai and Dinamo Zagreb.[8] Less than a week later, the club announced they had re-signed influential central midfielder Dani Ceballos on a second successive loan spell from Real Madrid. Ceballos had made 37 appearances in 2019–20, scoring twice, contributing two assists and providing a strong influence from a deep-lying position.[9]

The Gunners began their Premier League campaign away at Craven Cottage against newly promoted Fulham. Both Brazilians, Willian and Gabriel, made their debuts in a comfortable 3–0 win; Alexandre Lacazette opened the scoring in the eighth minute with a left-footed shot after a spill by Fulham goalkeeper Marek Rodak. Willian hit the post with a free-kick soon afterwards before delivering an excellent corner four minutes into the second half for Gabriel to nod in for a debut goal, before Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang wrapped up the three points with a fantastic strike into the corner to finish of a fine team move, with Willian getting another assist after a fine switched ball.[10]

On 16 September, captain Aubameyang signed a new three-year contract with the clubs, with reports suggesting his salary was now "in the region of £250,000" a week.[11]

Three days later, the club played their first home match of the season against West Ham United, whom they had last played in their final game before lockdown. The Gunners took a first-half lead after Frenchman Alexandre Lacazette powerfully headed in Aubameyang`s chipped cross-his 50th goal in all competitions for the club-before West Ham levelled through Michail Antonio on the stroke of half-time, after a devastating counter-attack. They dominated the second period, hitting the bar through Antonio and wasting numerous goalscoring opportunities before Arsenal clinched all three points with five minutes to go, Spaniard Dani Ceballos squaring for Eddie Nketiah on his second home debut to tap in the winner.[12]
