Every good team needs a top striker banging in the goals but Arsenal are fortunate enough to have two of them currently.And the Gunners have Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to thank as their exploits helped the club book their place in the Europa League final on May 29.8
Premier League
Winning the Europa League is pretty much Arsenal’s only route into securing Champions League football next season.They can still finish in the top four but must beat Burnley and hope Tottenham lose at home to Everton while also making up eight goals on their north London rivals on the final day.There have been plenty of positive points this season, with Emery’s men going on a 22-game unbeaten run between August and December, 14 of them league matches.8Europa League – Group stage
Arsenal topped their Europa League group pretty easily and Lacazette and Aubameyang’s work was not needed too much.However, if it wasn’t for Aubameyang’s double against Vorskla Poltava and Lacazette’s winner against Qarabag on matchdays one and six respectively then they could have ended up qualifying in second and thus being drawn against a trickier opponent in the knockout stages…8Last 32
The Gunners suffered an embarrassing loss at minnows BATE Borisov, going down to a 1-0 defeat which actually saw Lacazette receive a red card in Belarus.Thankfully for Arsenal, they were able to turn it around in London, winning 3-0 thanks to goals from Shkodran Mustafi and Sokratis Papastathopoulos as well as Zakhar Volkov’s own goal.8Last 16
They needed their strikers to be firing in the next round with Rennes giving them a scare after beating the Gunners 3-1 in France, Alex Iwobi scoring Arsenal’s goal.But an Aubameyang brace as well as Ainsley Maitland-Niles’ goal secured a 3-0 triumph and a 4-3 win on aggregate to keep Arsenal’s Europa League dreams alive.BT Sport8Quarter-finals
Then came their first big test of the competition in the form of Serie A giants Napoli but Arsenal made pretty easy work of it.Aubameyang and Lacazette played in both legs but it was Aaron Ramsey and Kalidou Koulibaly’s own goal which put the Gunners in charge of the first leg with a 2-0 win.Arsenal then went to the Stadio San Paolo and earned a 1-0 victory thanks to Lacazette’s 30-yard free-kick.8Semi-finals
The pair really came into their own in the semi-finals though, scoring all SEVEN of Arsenal’s goals over the two legs against the LaLiga side.8Manchester City will be competing alongside West Ham, Newcastle and Wolves in this summer's Premier League Asia Trophy in China.
