Arsenal supporters are disappointed with the start to the new season and already Wenger is under pressure.
Last season, after 9 games, the Gunners were on top of the Barclays premier league.
This campaign, they are already 9 points behind league leaders Chelsea and not even in the top 4.
It will be fair to say that the big players have failed to deliver for Arsenal except just one in the form of new signing Alexis Sanchez.
The former Barcelona star had a fantastic season for the Nou Camp side but Barca opted to sell him and bring in Luis Suarez from Liverpool.
Sanchez is easily the best playmaker in the Arsenal squad at the moment and arguably better than Chelsea’s and Man United’s best playmaker Hazard and Di Maria respectively.
The stats do not really tell the entire story with teams lying in different positions and Chelsea flying high at the moment but still do they explain more than a few things.
Sanchez has already scored 8 goals and provided 3 assists for the Gunners in all competitions this season.
Belgian international Eden Hazard has scored 4 goals and provided 5 assistswhile Man United’s record signing from Real Madrid Angel Di Maria has scored 3 goals and provided 4 assists.
Di Maria arrived late on in the transfer window, that should be taken into consideration but the Argentine star has not really been at his best in the last few games as well.
